Agreed. I am planning on orange for my stepper but I haven't decided exactly which orange. I really like yours... Decisions, decisions.

Hugger Orange is the way to go. It looks good and it's a factory color. But, I might be partial...

Re: I think I've decided on a build "theme"

Finally! The interior is done. I love the tan and orange together. I'm VERY happy with my color choices.

Look at the interior before and after. It has come a LONG way.

Very nice! Looks like a Cadillac, on the inside. What vehicle did that rear seat come out of?

2005 Tahoe fronts and center console and around the same year Suburban 3rd row seats for the rear.

That's one nice truck. I always like how people can have different visions for the back panels.

Wow. That interior is real nice. How much did the seats run ya? It's awesome that they have the shoulder harnesses integrated.

Re: I think I've decided on a build "theme"

I finally have the Blazer in my possession. It looks good and it sounds good. There is a fuel pump/fuel line location issue that is causing it to vapor lock when it gets hot. They're going to move the fuel pump back to the rear of the Blazer, close to the gas tank, and run the fuel lines on the outside of the frame.

Here are some pictures of it at work this morning.

Re: I think I've decided on a build "theme"

Looking to do the same kind of interior in my Blazer. What did you do for the kickpanels?

Edit: Nevermind, I see them in one of the pics. How does the stereo sound with the fronts in the center console?

It sounds surprisingly good. I wanted a 12" woofer in the rear but a 10" was the largest that would fit. I haven't listened to it with the top off yet but with the top on you can hear it just fine. I chose the center console over the kick panels because of the emergency brake pedal. I would have had to bend or re-position it.
