(

)
(Preview)
I'm test fitting the Strato Bench in my GP. It's fitting ok but I am wondering if the angle looks correct. Anyone here have one to check and tell me?

Fabric paint?
(Preview)
My seats are minty but I hate the colour, which doesn't match the rest of the interior. The interior is black except for green seats. It has been suggested that I paint the seats. Has anybody used fabric paint? What was your experience?

Which part...Impala or Catalina? AND Interior LED bulbs
(Preview)
Would the firewall insulation from a Catalina or Impala fit my '69 2+2? Catalina is 1/2 the price of the Impala! Also, has anyone replaced the standard bulbs in the gauge and interior lighting with LED's? Does it require any electrical upgrades or additions?
