how to tie all of this together

my interior has a black dash pad, black carpet, saddle seat belts, saddle steering wheel, and saddle visors. Oh and green seats.



But any tips on what I should do to try to tie all of this together. I am planning to buy new seat covers. but otherwise everything else is in good shape just trying to tie the colors together as much as possible. I had in mind going with saddle vinyl seat covers. What do you think

The exterior will soon be orange and white.

Re: how to tie all of this together

IMHO the saddle does not go with the dark olive, Door panels are black... add Seat covers in black. Steering wheel looks cracked ,repair and repaint steering wheel and console black.

Re: how to tie all of this together

I'd say either all black or all saddle. IMO saddle would look cool with the green. What is the color of the metal atop your dash?

Re: how to tie all of this together

I have a new steering wheel like this now. And the houndstooth with a little black in it looks like a possibility but With 2 kids I like the idea of vinyl to keep clean.








the green color is on its way out as we speak.



Soon to look more like this



The spid states it came with saddle.

FYI the original owner supposly painted it to match the train he drove for work

Re: how to tie all of this together

I vote Black and no inserts with kids. No pressure when (not if) something spills.
I'd start a build thread also in the Projects and Builds forum. Great way to share ideas and get advice along the way.
Good luck.

Love the seats. You going to recover them or sell them? If you're selling, put me in line.

Re: how to tie all of this together

The saddle looks good with orange but unless you are painting the interior as well I'd go With black. Can't tell if you are doing the dash and all that since it's covered.

Re: how to tie all of this together

Dash will be painted orange. Pretty much everything is saddle except the door panels and carpet are black and I was hopping to reuse them. I did find this pic which has the peanut butter thing going on. That if I get saddle seat covers.
