That is great! I have wanted a white SC4 for some time, but I promised myself I would never buy another car w/out black leather..... this past weekend I broke down and bought a white '99 SC4. Now I'm stuck with the tan, may have to convert to black in the future....

Dude, I'm totally impressed with the dedication you have in making the interior change. The only concern I might have is how well the parts will fit together and if you will have lots of squeaks and rattles once everything is put together.
Have you calculated the man hours involved? I'm sure it's more than 40 hours so far.

i started the project last sunday and continued to work on it 2 hrs during weekdays.
it does not take long at all as long as you know what you're doing.
i've take some interior parts before so, this is not my first attemp.
im 100% sure there will be no "rattles" once the project is done....
tks for the kind words by the way....
