Got the new carpet, the right non-cruise steering wheel (thanks DJP! ) and good used set of seats (thanks specracer!) installed. Still trying to source the right color (titanium) console. The insert is right and in great shape, just need the console and armrest.

Looks good. Any thought to dyeing the armrest/console that you already have?

Actually I have. But the dye for titanium I've seen just really isn't that great. Most of the other colors do good but titanium just doesn't seem to match. Plus, the previous owner had to mess with it (as he did with almost everything) and modify it for an aftermarket stereo.

I had some mixed for a '92 I did a few years ago...came out perfect, but definitely hard to match if the interior is faded at all. If the console has holes drilled in it, they can be filled/fixed pretty easily. I paid a service that does local used cars for dealerships to do mine. They filled them and even got the texture correct. I literally couldn't tell where the repair was.

Thanks Mike! I'm also glad to finally meet. It'll be good putting the faces with the screen names.

Oh, I thought you were referencing the "color in a can" dyes. I really want to get another one though since he's modified the radio opening for an aftermarket stereo.

These are in cans...just custom mixed.

My car had an aftermarket stereo also, but it was just a bezel with 4 holes in the console. Yours must be worse.
