Seat Swap! Other Mods - Pics!

Well finally got a digital camera so now I can take some shots of the mods in the works. Got the seats and door panels put together last week but never got around to posting up. So if you havent seen them already here they are. The seats are from a 98' Durango. Driver side is power, all in all they are in pretty good condition, especially for $15. Also got the middle row and rear seats too! They make for pretty good lounge area in the bed lol. I did a few simple things to the door panels. They were orginally all tan. I rattle canned the center section black to match a trim piece across the dash. Then used a metallic silver sharpie to outline the ridge. Also got the chrome inserts around the door handles via eBay. They set me back $5 shipped. Had to do a little custom trimming to make them fit but turned out nice I think. Also eBayed the carpeted dash cover, think it was around $10. Chrome looks peeled but its just the lighting.
