Interior Recolor!

[Outlaw]

Hey guys, Im new so im not sure if this is where to put this, but Im going to be uploading all the pictures and information of me redoing my interior of a 1997 K1500 Ext cab. I need as much help as I can get, I have a limited time frame. In a few months this pickup is on its way over-seas to Perth, West Australia! Its changing from the nasty (sorry if you like it) maroon-ish red interior to a granite, black and grey interior. Also, if any of you know anything about wiring electronics please speak up! I know theres a thread for it but it would be nice to get the exact answers I need. Please move this (if thats possible) to the right thread area if this is wrong. Thanks guys!

One idea, maybe you've already considered?, is to find a truck at the boneyard with good door panels, seats, etc, in the color you want, and change out the panels.

I have considered this. But none of the colors I want are stock colors so I have to dye it either way.

Good start, I just replaced my entire dash on my 94 yesterday. Well worth the labor..

Was it hard to put the dash back on?

Not really.. just time consuming. Be prepared to fight the wiring harness until you get it set in place. I took my old cracked up dash out, and installed one I got from the bone yard. So after pulling two dash's, installation went smooth once you get it set in place. Both dash's are 22 years old. So I took my time and was extra careful. If I would of had help, it would have been easy. Hard to man handle it inside the truck by yourself.
