Redoing my interior completely... questions...

Alright. I'm about to redo almost my entire interior. I have a bunch of questions.

-Carpet: I've found molded carpet at carparts.com for like 115.00. I know that 1aauto.com has nice ones but they are 200.00. Have anyone had any experiances with the carparts one?

-Headliner: I've been looking at the abs headliner @thirdgenresource. Anyone have these/opinions?

-Seats: Exactly which seats will fit our cars? How new (year model) can we go? Also will both front and back fit? Also which seatbelts will fit in the car? Including all covers etc.?

Thanks guys, sorry for the long post

Hey I just redid my interior, I used fourth gen seats. From the best of my knowledge All fourth gen seats will bolt right in. I got a pic of it on this board. Now the seat belts, I m not sure of but they might be able to bolt in also. As for the headliner and carpet I was able to use the orginal. sorry I can't help you on that one.

They do but don't lean back. They're fine for me, but you know we have some people who like to be nearly horizontal when they drive...

Because you can't lean back in a Corvette. Nowhere to go. Wheel wells back there. So they don't build the seats to lean back.
