I did mine yesterday. It was a fun mod. Material went on real easy. I did the second door in an hour.

Any tips on doing the rears?

Just knocked off the rears in less than 2 hrs. Piece of cake. I did pop off that small triangular trim piece in the corner.

The new material is BLACK. Does not show in the pics that well except maybe this one from the previous page.

Actually the stuff is very similar or the same as I have on my chair here at desk.

Yeah he still doesn't have FIT kits on ebay, I may just try a fabric store since I am getting my Clazzio covers on tuesday I want something nicer on the doors than the factory blue/black junk.

Not sure why he doesn't list them on eBay, but he does have them. Just send him an email.

Thank you. After the first one the rest are easy to install. I did the last one in under halfhour. If you try fabric store you want something that stretches. Vinyl does not work. I tried that.

You could have it but I must have thrown it out. I just looked and don't see it. Sorry. Be best to use the same stuff I did.

You can't beat Hollywoodlightsla! That's why I worked with him to get these kits made. Mine have been on for over a year now and I'm having absolutely ZERO issues. I love them! Easy install too.

Thinking about doing mine red and getting red recaros or bride front seats..but I was looking at my rear door panels. The bottom back end of the panel looks shorter than the bottom back end of the front door panel...do I just cut the back end of the fabric shorter for the back seat panels?

Might try and do this when I get the speakers switched out. I think red would look nice with the Clazzio's I just ordered.
