    GQ Interior Reno

    Hey guys I've been steadily working away at redoing the interior of my 1990 Safari and thought I'd put up some pictures of what I've been doing so far. I started by taking the dash out (which was grey as was everything else inside) and sprayed it black. I then put it back in and replaced the steering wheel at the same time

    I then decided to start rebuilding the doors as mine were in really rough shape I got some black vinyl and rebuilt the interiors with 2mm mdf, and used spray glue and put on foam that I got which is actually for under laminate flooring but it worked perfectly below the vinyl. I decided to go back in time when rebuilding the doors and actually stripped out the window motors and decided to go for hand cranked window winders and just have a basic handle inside it to make everything pretty simple

    Got some pictures of the before and after on the rear doors as well

    Not quite finished yet just waiting on the handles and the winders. I also covered the back panels in the black vinyl which i will upload some pictures at some point and stripped out the headliner to upholster. Today I tackled reupholstering the rear seat which was definitely a learning experience haha and considering I don't own a sewing machine or even have the skill to sew I decided to do it in one go without sewing which actually turned out quite well. I ran out of the vinyl after doing the base so I'm just waiting on more to arrive to finish the seat back.
