    Talking Interior parts Color swap.

    Welp ....i have a black and tan interior with a couple misc. parts from the maroon interior thrown in. Like the dash, the spedo tach cover, arm rest , the plastic in the door wells the hiding spot(fuse box) , and review mirror .

    Now im thinking of changing everything thats black and making it the maroon interior color ..
    Has anyone ever replaced the top of the dash , and can it be done .. i swore when i took my dash off years ago i seen that you can replace the top..

    I am wanting to do the black part on the top of the door in the maroon too..
    Can you replace those .. or are the door panels all just one piece ? i thought i seen they were screwed on ..

    Thanks for the info ...hit me up on any ideas...

    the tops of the door panels can be separated, the dash I'm not too sure about. I know they are separate pieces, but i can't remember how they're held together

    Yeah .,.. it might be a lot of work .. and then i might not like it .. The color combo with the maroon black and tan and my car being the color it is , the Navaho red , it actually looks better than just tan and black ..I like it.. I just wan't more maroon in it,, the colors flow pretty good .. ive had compliaments


    I had transported a big ass tv in the front seat of my car , and when i hit the breaks it slammed on to my dash and left a little tear on it .. so was wanting to swap it out ,,

    might be easier to swap out the whole dash with the one that you want or take it out and spray it. I like the 2tone interior but tan interiors show the dirt faster. i like my maroon interior only other color i would have would be a black interior
