Probably going to do something like this with mine. Red being Neutral leather and probably swap out the headrests for 93-97 marshmellows.

Do like!

1993 with the marshmellow headrests for ref. Shouldn't be too hard to find them and swap them since the seat backs never changed between 1993 and 2002.

This is the next big fix/mod after I do the speakers, spoiler, paint touch up, and headlamp. Oh.. and for those of you who also like 4th gens.. bow in envy. We had this factory option.



It's like the IOM of 4th gens.

you want the ARP 2000 ones. the regular ones are rated for like 800hp or something like that, the 2000 ones are for up to 1200hp.
