I have some insights and other findings that I'll get sorted and post.

Finished installing the door panels (X4), rear side panels , rear seat and window trim.

While doing this wori I've replaced all the rubber gaskets ( Steele Rubber products).

I purchased replacement veyt / quarter windows glass as 2 of mine were cracked and one of the others had severe delamination.
( The Glass Man w/DOT cert)

I still need to do some adjustments on the center post windlace.

Make replacement kick panels.

Finish thre front seat.

Finish the edges of a front carpet that
will be installed inplace of the 50% missing rubber mat that was in the car.

I'm also waiting on the headliner and wireon moulding.

This is a picture of the drivers side from yesteray right after I finished the install.

This is a link to a video of the rear area. (the wrinkle issue on the drivers side rear door has been corrected)

Still need to finish the sunvisors , hand grabs, rearview mirror.

Bottom line.. This is not a project to be taken lightly...

Now we understand why interiors are so expensive. !
