The mission - fit a wrap round harness bar and retrim the side bolsters.

Seats out, rear panel removed, sound deadening cut back a little, much cursing and grazed hands. Eventually I get it fitted. Interior light needs to be stuck back as a clip broke...……………...

Will be fitting some edging to the rear panel section round the harness to finish it off. Bolt painted Black and put back into the original top seatbelt hole.

Found some material to try rather than leather or suede to cover the side bolsters. Original leather consoles are daft money (and I'm tight).  Stretched and glued on the underside in case I decide to revert back.

Both sides went ok, so thought I'd tackle the rear centre console section as I've always hated the silver plastic.
Got SWMBO to do some stuff with the sowing machine as the fabric doesn't stretch round curves.

Now the centre console. Again SWMBO helped with stitching
