Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays
After many years of fiddling, restoring and keeping things running I'm just about finished with most of what I have planned for this 93SE. As the original owner of this almost 25 year old car it's been mostly a fun ride. The mild exterior paint refresh is about a year old now and holding up well. I'm particularly happy with the clear film which covers the entire front end including the hood, front bumper, fenders, mirrors and top of rear bumper. The driver seat leather and padding were replaced last summer and the entire interior was color dyed as well so any discolored plastic and leather now match exactly. With the exception of the sun-visors which droop slightly and won't stay all the way up, all defective pieces were recently replaced with NOS parts. These include the wheels, center caps, exterior mirrors, grille trim, wheel opening moldings, etc.
In the way of mods there really isn't any to speak of. The OEM Bose headunit was serviced several years ago and at the time a remote aux jack was installed which is now mounted in the one of the console blanks. A plugin Bluetooth device was added with a non-permanent hardwire setup to keep it charged. I just replaced all the interior and exterior incandescent lighting with LEDs. In case there are any concerns about keeping it stock (LOL like that's a problem around here) just about everything I've done can easily be restored to OEM without physical damage. And in case anyone was wondering one set of my original OEM SE floor mat sets is still installed only they're under an aftermarket carpeted set and a generic rubber set visible in these pics you know just like you guys do![1](http://www.cb7tuner.com/smile.gif)
The only mod I've held back on is the map light/sunglasses holder I bought from losiracer last year. It's color matched now and the bulbs replaced with LEDs but I can't quite bring myself to permanently cutting into the headliner to install it... yet. Anyway here's how it looks as of today:
