Friday I started by making the bolster panel for the rear seats, the foam cushions are thicker on the SN car so they changed the rear upper floor pan, everythingt else is the same, So I used SN carpet and wala, looks factory. Also removed that stupid knuckle for the rearm mount of the cage, glad I didnt rely on that cage cause the welds held like shit.








Also madea simpleamp rack, I was gonna ge all crazy and weld something coo looking but this is lighter and simpler, also made another rack for a piece of plywood to support the weight of the sub when the carpet is installed, then covered them in headliner material to reduce squeeks, but I traded in my phone and my uploads are all fucked up.

Also installed the quarter panels and roof trim around the headliner





Seat test fit
Saturday was kind of fucked up since I dislocated my shoulder again and had a few a/c jobs but I had to clean the metal glaze, dried tape and overspray from the windows
Before

After


Then removed the tape glue from the trim, sanded and painted


Day shot after some more fitting


Looks almost like a car

I agree. You're going to have it done before I have the Cobra running again.

Still not 100% installed, need to fix the issue of the gap and install the retainer lips for the bottom cushion to glose the other gaps

I just bought parts from agora hills that took 8 days to get here, I could have driven and picked them up, shit I could have ridden my bike and got them sooner.
