I posted this on cherokeeforum, and I figured I'd share it with ya'll too!
I got REALLY sick of looking at the nasty poo-tan interior in my '97 and I had some grey leather WJ seats sitting around taking up space, so I sought out some grey XJ guts and pieced it all together. Enjoy!
Before:
Pile of junk!
in progress!
Call me insane, but after living without carpet for a year, I wanted it back! I found a really nasty carpet in the junkyard, but after a LOT of steam cleaning and scrubbing it came out pretty decent aside from some slight discoloration and some cigarette burns, that is. I wish I would have taken before pictures of it... it was so gross I wouldn't even put it inside the jeep to drive home- I strapped it to the roof rack! The only reason I considered doing this was because the carpet hadn't started rotting yet, and I got it WITH the cool "Jeep" logo factory rubber mats for a whopping $10 versus about $250 for the carpet alone new.
As of now, the front seats are in but the back is not. Also, I need to get the headliner redone.
More later!!!
