More saddle parts for old green. It never had a headliner so I get to drill a bunch of holes. Then find a headliner.

That interior's going to come together nicely. Let us know what you come up with for a headliner. I was thinking about putting a layer of dynamat type material and then covering it with an adhesive layer of tan colored neoprene. Give some thermal and noise protection and tie into the interior color.

Probably will go with this headliner. Thought about some sound dampening stuff but I did it to my 07 classic and realy didn't notice a difference in road noise.

The interior's looking good. And that headliner looks like it'll be a nice touch.

Looks great. How did it go with drilling the holes for the headliner trim? I'm about to start with that.

Thanks. I put the rear corner ones in first used the seat belt bolt to help locate it. Then just drill the holes. Then did the front corner ones. I actually didn't drill the bottom holes. I could get a drill in thare. Then the sides and cross peaces just held them up and drilled away.

It's bean a hot minute but I finally got a good tan seat. It's an original survivor seat to. Also got the correct 81 up tan seat belts so the seat can live happy. The 76 belts I had tryed to occupi the same space and the seat but I just forced it. Now everything is good.

Save them for a rainy day. I'm selling the blue seat though.
