Default Installed RedLine leather products.

After a long wait modifiying & building I was able to finally get the Redline products installed.
Black perforated leather
- Gauge bezel
- center armrest
- shift boot (my short shifter is shortttttt)
- ebrake boot
- door arm rests.

Looks cleaner in person.
The didgital dash is still a work in progress. Working on finishing the drape.

Not sure how I feel about that guage bezel, but the door panels look amazing! That carbon fiber section really pops. How do you like their armrest cocers? I have some but I've not done them yet.

Looks great!

I'm about to start a new thread, for I'm about to install redline door panel inserts also. But looking for a good how to melt those plastic tabs off, without burning the cardboard, then of course getting them back on!

Any tips?

I cut mine off, then went back with some oversized washers and self tapping screws to secure it.

the armrest covers ( all three) look fantastic. To an outsider, It’s a subtle change but makes a big impact when you notice it.
When you have owned/driver the car for as long as I have the change isn’t so subtle, it gives a more current & upgraded experience.
the door panels were purchased in combination with my seat covers. I did this many moons ago and still look as nice as the day they were installed.

Bottom line: The Redline products worked out great.

Thanks for chiming in, I'm the original owner I've mine and it was time for a change. I went red leather with mine but I've had my door panels wrapped for a while, had these armrest covers for over a year but still not out them on haha

The shifter is ZO6 style and can be found on EBay.
PM me and I’ll get you the company name.

Head unit it is Pioneer ( old, but they still may make it). A little dated, I would search for a more current head that can be adapted to fit.

The shifter itself is a HINSON short through shifter. Well worth the money. Completely changes the experience.
It’s tight, precise & preloads the shift. It’s like flicking a light switch between 1-4.

A local shop was doing quite a bit of Hydro Dipping for dealerships & did all of my plastic interior parts as well as side view mirrors.
Unfortunately he is no longer in business.
