Interior Rejuvination

[742002]

So, I have had my 1974 2002 for a while now. I have done a few things to the interior to try and make it more comfortable, but have never really been happy with it. My headliner is stained and starting to crack near some of the edges. My carpet is of the one piece molded type and has shrunk so bad it won't fit anymore. The dash is full of cracks. The front seats are better than stock, I pulled them out of a CRX, but they are tearing. I usually park the car during the winter, so this time I decided I would do something about it. After parking the car I pulled the glass, dashboard, headliner, front seats and carpet all out. I pulled all of the old rubber seals out and got the car ready to go to paint and fix some rust issues around the rear wheel wells and rockers. It's been there awhile now, and I have ordered and found some of the new parts I will use. I found some seats out of an Z3 M Roadster that I will be putting in, I ordered and recieved all new seals, I have a new headliner waiting to go in, I already put in rear seats from a 6 series car, I have a crackfree dash and I have a rearview mirror from an E30 M3 with maplights. Here are some pics of the seats and car stripped before going to paint.








Thanks for looking,

Was curious how you made out. I have been struggling to find parts for my 318ic but have not strayed from the model. Where did you find the parts and how can you tell everything would fit when yu mix and match?

Well, I have finished up and have been driving the car around quite a bit. Here is the finished product and the pictures leading up to it in a seperate forum.

BMW 2002 FAQ - Interior Rejuvination

I got my parts from Bavarian Autosport, Greenfield Imported Auto, and Maxamillian.

As to your mixing and matching question, I relied heavily on the answers from people at 2002faq.com and the other stuff I just kind of hoped it would fit, and if not I finessed it a little.

Thanks for the questions,
