Default Tidied up my interior!!!!!!!

With help from Dr Silvia and Claire i sorted out my interior this weekend. Dr silvia spent saturday rewiring my headunit and all the speakers with decent untangled connections and he also rewired some of the car loom behind the dash and made all my guages run from ignition feeds and the backlights work from the lights.Its spot on and im really happy with it.
Claire helped me tidy out binliners full of rubbish out the boot and fit my s14 leather rear seats today. Equiped with a saw she measured up and cut me some mdf to go in the boot under the carpet/ It was getting really anoying having the carpet sag in where the spare wheel goes.
Ive also fitted the steering wheel i bought off Turbomike from here too.
Thanks to them for the help

Heres some pictures

Well the bottom of the back panel still needs a bracket made up to pull it back as you can see its sticking forward slightly but Basically i copied the way Richard Kimberly has done his. Rich has fitted the s14 front seats too which are a very good fit.
For the rears you have to cut the existing hooks off that held the s12 back up then get a strip of metal and screw it to the flat surfaces running down infront of the rear speaker pods this metal strip then can be screwed to the back of the s14 seat back to hold it in place. The bottom of the s14 seat has fixings there,I just drilled 4 holes in the floor and bolted it down. The rears are not the best fit and they wont be hinged to lay them flat anymore but they are really comfy and look alot nicer than 80s cloth, especially if you do the complete swap with leather fronts aswell. I like them and at last my interior feels a little bit luxurious and nice to be in again.

I just wanted the interior to be done ready for when the exterior gets resprayed in a fortnight. Then as a package it should hopefully look pretty smart. Oh and i have fitted a SE type front splitter this weekend aswell but forgot to take a picture
