    Welcome to the forum, Slantback37. On the buckets, mine are Fiero and I was lucky to find a guy in Florida that has built a business around custom covers for Fiero seats. If you can find someone doing custom covers for yours the installation is pretty straight forward. If you cannot find aftermarket custom covers that suit you then you're going to have to visit an upholstery shop and have some made. I was told to expect $400-$600 per seat for leatherette custom covers, installed, and I spent $450 for mine and installed them myself, inlcuding headrest speakers that were optional in the Fiero.

    I cannot help much with door panels as I have not yet done mine. I did talk to Pete Hagan http://www.haganauto.com/Default.asp?Redirected=Y at Goodguys, and his kits are pretty nice but also pretty expensive to me. Look in the interiors section here http://www.clubhotrod.com/forums/showthread.php?t=46465 for some pointers on no sew panels. You can also search the forum for other interior ideas.

    When you run into specific questions post them up and people will jump in to answer.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
