Hey GoFast can you PM me where you got the carpet and the belts? I'm swapping out my interior this winter and going from tan to black and charcoal and the belts link would be great.

Thanks in advance and the progress is looking great.

What type of seats are you going to run??? I've been thinking about ditching my stock seats for something more supportive.

I'm running TA seats that I had custom redone padding and leather and suede.



I finished the roll bar last night. A few pics, nothing too exciting though.

I did the paint a long time ago. Not going to do anymore of the door like that, it would be overkill IMO. Thanks man.

After about 4 hours with myself and Ls1CamaroGuy87 working really hard on the car, we got the new carpet installed!

Also took the time to remove my Pioneer AVIC-N1 nav system in favor of a more simple and much newer Pioneer deck. This new deck has the direct Apple Ipod software integrated into it and uses a USB cable and controls the Ipod. This allowed me to remove the older Pioneer Ipod control box, one less piece of equipment and a lot less wiring.

There are still a few odds and ends to tie up with the rest of the interior, but for the majority its done!

Thanks again Steven for the help today!! Couldn't have done it without ya man.
