Tan or black 2G leather?

[ranger2339]

I would say the black on tan. I have the black on black/grey and I dont like the grey that much. If it was all solid black then it would be the jamtastic..

Heres my New Black and my OLD Tan. I know I will dig the black more once the car is all set up on the exterior.

My taste changes a lot, but if I was to go with luxury I'll pick tan. If I wanted to pick up some girls I'd stick with black on black.

 

[EclipseTrbo420A]

Haha luxury! Our DSM and their plastic interiors are anything but luxurious.

I can say however, probably for as long as Im able to work on cars there will be a DSM in my vehicel collection. Still, you gotta upgrade sometime.

GSX has grey/black/whatever. Looks alot better imo

I agree

You'd be suprised, most dsm's are beat up and seeing a nice clean tan interior is a taste of luxury to me. No cadillac but not bad for a 10 year old car.

If you want luxury, gotta go with the leather dash!

Ill give you that, I cannot stand a messy/nasty interior. If you check my pics on the previous page you will see how nice I keep mine. They are always like that.

I have friends with 3 weeks of fast food, old cloths, bottles, cups and grime....you name it, just nasty shit and I HATE riding in their cars.

ok im done.

The leather dash is gorgeous. The price tag is not.

 

[blackGSX2g]

Wow, that is absultely amazing. If my car was a DD, I'd really consider doing something similar to that, but I just can't justify the price tag on a car I only take to the track or out on weekends.

But I definately give props for the effort, I never thought there would be anything better than an OEM black dash.

price was not just the dash...it was the entire interior according the last post on there

 

[RedTurboEclipse]

There it is, kahl23's interior is the perfect example of a "custom" interior that actually works. He makes that blue color accent color work and the leather dash well is amazing. He's a good example of "custom" interior that turned out good on a 2g, that isn't just a 99 full black leather swap, or just replacing seats.

Notice he has the door panels from a 95 (maybe on also on a 96) with the larger pocket. When moving from my 98 gst to 95 gsx, that was one of those nice little things.

edit, makes sense he has a 95.

My '95 came with little pockets

 

[gorf]

my 2 cents
I have had a gray and a tan interior. IMO the seats are a wash, both look good, but here in the south tan makes more cents. They just don't get as hot as the black in the sun. However, I hate the tan carpet! It gets dirty and looks like shxx!
Tan seats with a black carpet looks pretty good......

Whoa, we just found out another one of those little talon vs eclipse differences. (for the 95 year at least)

 

[T Money]

I have little pockets too. Those big ones would be nice, you could actually put things in them.

 

[siceclipse]

I still never understood why my 97 GS auto had black leather seats, black dash, center console, and black door inserts. Everything else was tan...

The black seats are what sold me on the car cause i never saw a 97 GS with black leather seats before.

 

[blkwidow]

Black leather all the way.

 

[RedTurboEclipse]

Interesting, and you have an "Eclipse". I have 2 95 GSXs, both have the big pockets. All with the perforated leather seats. My 98 GS-T had the small pockets, other 97-99s GST/GSX i've ran across also have the small pockets. My 95s are earlier build date I wonder if that matters.

Add another one to the DSM mysteries.

 

[siceclipse]

big (functional) pockets are 95-96 only

 

[SwitchSkier]

big (functional) pockets are 95-96 only

I donno. My 96 came with the small ones. Sometimes I put my wallet in it, then forget it's so small and have to spend 5 minutes trying to get it out. The damn money clip catches on the inside edge!

 

[RedTurboEclipse]

No longer true if you see some of the replies here. I thought that too, but people with 95 talons are saying they have the small ones. Even 95 eclipse owners are saying they have the small ones. So who knows how to distinguish which gets the small or big ones.

 

[blackGSX2g]

^I have a late '95, that might be the difference. Does your early '95 have the vented rear disc brakes?
