I put the new belts in and started on the rear carpet section tonite. Man that first cut is nerve wracking!!   :grinyes:  Then I poped the holes for the belts a little high so I could pull it down on the hump to get it tight! Seems to be ok so far...   then I tought enuff for tonite... quit before I screw up!!  :bigsmile:

Thanks guys! New seat backs lookin' good! I've been plaing with the console about 2 hrs and took a lunch break. To get things to sit properly I'm finding out is a bit of a project! I had to pull some of the jute backing out around the shift hardware to get the console to sit a little lower. But I think I finally have the shift plate lined up ok. The line in the "PRND21" is a bit off, but I think thats due to the new Shumacher mounts along with the new trans mount. Things are sitting a little different. I can live with that for now.

Thanks Mark. Well I did it!! This part of NIKKI is DONE!!!!!   :woo: I'll bet I had that console on and off ten times before I got it where it needed to be, but I think the results look pretty good. I even did a quik polish on my sill plates. They wern't perfect to begin with but look much better now!
