In a volkswagen it would probably be a couple of hours work, but what if one wanted to transplant a whole interior (100%) from one cerb to another? I have no idea how the panels/dash/armrest/seats are fixed.....

thx

Some bits are bolted in, some are glued in, some are fibreglassed in, some are masking taped in and others stay in through willpower smile

It's possible, but a bit of a bh without a lot of space and good tools I would think.

i'm looking at this, quotes have been rather high. as with everything in the cerbera, there's slight differences over the years.

some have bought seats from other cars, and recovered/dyed from what i have read. i don't have a garage, so I'll have to go the route of getting someone with or paying to get it done. have you already got a donor interior, or are you looking to get the original recovered? I've heard the recovering is the better route, as they can fill gaps and bespoke the fitting.
