Default I need an interior

I am seeking perhaps an entire interior from a '91 or '92 Taupe or Dark Taupe LS400. The exterior color code for this car would be 3H-9 and the trim code would be LA45. The interior color is Rose. These code numbers are located
on the driver's door tag right below the long bar code. If anyone knows where one could find door panels, seats, console arms rest and carpets, I would appreciate an email. If you have seen such a car in a junk yard and the interior parts are still in good shape, please let me know. I am in Houston, by the way. Thanks

Default Interior

Unfortunately, I can't afford to have new seats covered in
leather. That would probably cost more than the car is
worth. I might, however, consider recovering them in very
high-quality velour. I have seen pics of 1990 models with
velour interiors, and, even after sixteen years, that velour
looks BRAND NEW. No leather seat with any real usage
can stand up like that. It might be considered more gla-
morous, but it just doesn't wear as well.

Default I don't think so.

Hell no, the car is worth a lot more than that, but I'll tell
you for sure that nobody is going to recover front and
rear seats plus the arm rest plus door panels for any
$600 bucks. Especially not with leather. They might do
one bucket seat for that.

maybe if you opened the link that NewLS provided you wouldnt be so "sure" of yourself since leatherseats.com hosts GBs that bring the price down to between $700-800 for all 4 front and rear seats.
