So there smart tv is working now? Because me and another member bought that awhile back. And it didnt work, or the company was having problems with it? Nice work btw :y

christ, you must have spent a boatload on that interior swap.

Also, I like the wood covers, but they don't match the matte wood elsewhere in the interior.

ambitious project, but looks good so far (minus the wheels)

Chris The Swede 10-02-2011 08:50 AM

If you read my posts it says that all wood will be replaced with the glossy wood. ;)

Oh you dont like the wheels? I was so unsure my self. I guess I sell them if they dont look good on the car. I only seen them on a W216 and they looked really good on that one.

Chris The Swede 10-02-2011 08:53 AM

Here they are on the CL.

yeah, missed the wood comment.

The wheels are not my style, but if you like them, more power to ya

Do you have a good place to order the leather from? I'm looking to get the leather for the drivers seat back.

745Japan 10-02-2011 10:25 PM

I have to admit that two tone interior is awesome bro. Nice.

.trunzx 10-03-2011 01:21 AM

Looks great, how hard was it to swap the seat covers?
