So the winter project is now moved into a spring project. Moving and over xmas kinda messed up my plans.

So the seats have been acquired, I placed the drivers seat in manually and sat in the seat and compared it to the stock seat and i think the new seat actually sits lower then the stock kidney crushers. So with power racks i can adjust it.

I had my fab guy modify the stock mount for the the power seat rack to fit the stock holes. Tonight it goes in to see how it looks. I'm going to remove the seat belt receiver latch from the seat as well. Ill probably go with a set of generic seat belts unless i can find a good set of black ones.

New carpets are in, new floor mats, black headliner kit, black A piller covers, I bought dye to paint the kick panels, debating on replacing the door panels as mine are a bit rough.

Have to remove the rest of the interior yet. I'm going to take pics of where i am at this weekend and post them up here.

I rebuilt the drivers side door window mechanism as the two main rollers were shot. I replaced the main roller track on the window as the old one was warped and bent in several places.

Does anyone know how to raise the position of the window? i tweaked the smaller track all the way down that raised it up a bit. But the side closest to the front of the car seems to sit a bit low (meaning it could go up higher into the weatherstripping). I checked that i was not topping out on the right side stopper and that's not the case, so how do i get it to crank up about 3/16 - 1/4 inch more?

I was thinking about retro fitting a set of newer seats though I hadn't put alot of thought into which ones. Do you have any pics of your new set up? Thanks!
