    Got an unusual interior - share it with us! Pimped or Rat - makes no difference

    Please no sound or Instrument pics - those have their own threads

    Battery boxes, custom panels, seats, lights, carpets etc..... bring them on

    Here's some JDM stuff to start off with:

    JDM cars had power folding electric mirrors as an option, electric drivers seat on all cars from 88 on.
    Limited interior colour choices, nearly all are blue
    Some Blue interiors have black inserts on the seats and doors as standard
    The radio aerial is included in the rear window glass

    Stock 88 JDM TEMS GE, GT-R with common JDM blue interior

    Stock 87 JDM ST162 Corona GT, FE grey/black interior (similar to convertable)

    Stock 87 JDM GT4 with grey leather - seems they were all grey/black leather

    Stock 88 JDM GT-R, GE with black leather (rare)

    So, the Wolf also has 2 electric seats!
    The wiring is easy, the hard part is to mount the second gauge neatly, I have
    the same problem & cutting up a spare console as the hole needs a relief

    To make a proper passenger seat, I had to buy another front set and swap the bases around
    How did you solve that problem?

    Nice conversion Wolf! I'd like to see the seats as well.
    I find the brown interior very depressing, did you change the dash as well? I see some brown
    switches in the dash
    Does your dimmer switch work? I have the dimmer but no wires?

    Witch type do you have?

    What's with the diff lock switch on the GT4?

    Is that an early JDM option only?

    I have 2 '88 gt4's and neither have this? (USDM models)
    Black on Black interiors w/leather on both.

    I just kinda hooked it up to the other chair's electrical system as you don't use it at the same time and not all the time it is save enough. I used another drivers' seat to change the passenger seat indeed.

    The switch I don't know, i'll take it out someday and make apicture of it.

    Getting the seatswitch nice and tidy is a shitjob as it will never fitt as good as the original, but my wife and friends are happy I put it in there :).

    Already done that, I sacrificed an old console just for the seat switch holder

    You could also cut the relief carefully using a router

    how did it turn out can you post a pic?

    Haven't finished yet, still got to glue it into the new console,
    will post the entire new interior soon

    I also have the two seats using the same supply, just don't use them at the same time

    Those brown and grey seats are interesting, never seen them here. The early cars (86) with tan interior
    had Corona type seats here.

    ya i would probly bring a second supply in...i know its more wiring but if theres anyone else that presses the button at the same time?? well yano...if someone checks out your car!

    The worst that can happen in that case is a fuse will blow
    Not worth the effort of running wires all the way to the fusebox and adding another fuse

    Well, well - the dimmer switch is interesting
    On all 4 of the JDM cars I had, not one had a working dimmer switch!
    Thankfully the dash is out at the moment and I decided to do a little hunting.

    Tied up inside the dash harness where the White/black & black wires with the connector and a
    jumper across them. Turns out neither switch is the correct one an I still can't get the dash lights to dim

    Anybody hazard a guess why the JDM's don't have adjustable dash lights?
    Please could someone show me the correct dimmer switch?

    Love the push button heater controls. Did they come on the Japanese versions or the American ones? Did we get them in the UK?
