Need Interior Ideas

Hey all,
I'd like to see those of you that have gray colored interiors. I have seen ones with tan and browns, but I'm leaning towards light or medium gray.

Thanks

It is not mine, but I did like the look of this.

I am also planning on Gray for an interior, since I am going with a Candy Apple Red from the 2010/11 Mustangs. The seats are Gray leather with gray carpet and gray vinyl door panels. Unfortunately, I am too far away from showing you any of this in the truck.

Were doing gray leather also. We already found the seats, A shop in Phoenix sell new seats out of a Honda Odessey, in either gray or tan leather for $200.00 for a pair, less the console. It's a bit to wide to fit in the 48 with the console. For another $150.00 they make all the custom mounts and install.

Since I am not smart enough or am too lazy, take your pick, to learn how to post pictures here is a link to my 55. Down toward the bottom there are some pictures of the carpet and seat during install.

I am not sure of the width of the 55 but I can tell you that the seats with the console is 56" across. My 48 is only 53" so the console has to go and I need to make one that will fit. I don't know if they will ship but here is their contact information.

ChuckRob I bought the same seats in Phoenix. The will be just right for my 55 as far as width, with the console.

ZFLASH, I believe they have them listed on Ebay also, but shipping may be expensive.

Second row seats don't typically have position adjuster slides and may not have folding backs to access the cab space behind them. You may be able to build or adapt slides, but non folding backs may be a bigger issue.

They usually do AX if they have the third row seating and the vehicle is top of the line. They move fore & aft recline and even double fold forward so people can get in and out of the third row seats. Chrysler Pacifica, Chrysler minivans & Jeep Commander come to mind first. I believe some of the Cadillac and Lincoln SUVs have power adapted to those features. But you are correct for those without the 3rd row.
