i redid my door panels, used "Autobond Porsche black" carpet that i found at Menard's (local chain i think...kinda like Lowe's) that i sewed to a black faux leather for the top part, put foam behind the leather and now i've got a bowtie (about 3"x6") on the back of each door panel (far enough back that your arm doesn't hit it when you use the arm rest in the door, looks excellent.

BODY AND INTERIOR<---------

now lets try to look at the dates and realize that in the past day, he probly already moved it and thats why its here.
it only takes 5 secs to move a thread.




anyhooooo..

a nice interior mod is to take out your rear seats... run a vacume thru there and then bolt em back in.

you will be amazed by how much crud really is in there.


currently, i have my seats out and i shampooed and re dyed the carpet... looks and feels new.




my next plan is to goto a sign store and print out my gauges on some nice plastic (its a 91, so i have the newer gauges).... im then going to put some blue LEDs in the dash... then i have a nice modern NON YELLOW gauges..


adding auto down circuits to the windows is a nice lil touch...

one day, just take out all your trim pieces and clean them off outside the car... prefably under extremely good lighting.
if needed, redye them with molecubond or another QUALITY dye.

Saturn window switches are the easiest, search the site for wiring diagrams...

I believe the wiring is nearly the same, and the auto-down feature.
