Question Interior Swap?

i was wondering if anybody has or can tell me how difficult it would be to swap out, oh say.... tan interior for ebony or dark gray interior, i know seats are not hard but what about all the body panels and carpet, etc.? is it a waste of time or money? all opinions helpful. thanks

Its not hard at all, its just expensive, and do the ebony, not the dark gray. Im slowly getting rid of my gray and going to black as we speak

None of it is hard, everything comes out with just a couple of screws and bolts. The panels and everything are just hard to find in good shape.

It's really easy. It was the first thing I did to my '95 Camaro. It just expensive. Especially the door panels.
