Interior work + some other mods
Replaced the Headliner, installed Iggee direct fit seat covers, and reupholstered the arm rests to match the seats.

Seats


As for the arm rests, I had to melt the plastic rivets holding it on to the door panel, so when it came time to re installing them, I figured I would use some bolts instead of remelting the plastic to give it a more tough look and make it sturdier. The original idea was to only use 10 bolts per arm rest, but the guy I had to do the reupholstering work accidentally punched holes in the middle of the arm rest as well, so I had to fill them with bolts too, it may look a little busy to some, and I wasn't too pleased I had to deviate from my original plan, but it is growing on me, and I think it looks decent.
Here is the original plan, everywhere you see a gray circle I was planning on using bolts, if you look carefully, you can see there are holes from the factory in the middle of the arm rest, the guy I had do the work accidentally punched holes through there even though I instructed him not too, oh well.




I also color matched the top bumper piece, lower air dam, and mirrors.


I also bought the SCT tuner from Hemifever. VERY pleased with it so far, I plan on doing some 0-60mph runs for each tune, and compare it with the stock tune to see if there is any gain. To me, it was worth it just for the torgue management removal, and the extended rev limiter, the added power and fuel mileage is just a bonus.

Thanks guys!
Lords- Props to you for the diamond plate on the seat frame.
BigSlick- Thanks man, I got them for around 190 on ebay. Just search for "Dodge Ram Seat Covers". You can come up with any color combo you want really. It was an extra 30 dollars for the middle seat, but I think it was worth it. Really helps on those days when you get in the truck covered in dirt, can just take a sponge or damp rag and clean them right up.

There made out of "synthetic leather". Pretty much a heavy duty vinyl, but they actually feel just like leather. They also build in some extra padding so it makes our seats even more comfy, as well as put some pockets behind the seats so you can store more stuff, perfect for a college student!

Yes they are Iggee brand, The seats are a breeze to take out, but you can leave them in to install the seat covers. Only reason I removed the seats is so I could spray the seat tracks with flat black rustoleum to clean them up a bit, as our seat tracks/frames are known to have some surface rust over the years.
Here is a link to them

I know SilverDodge has had the Iggee covers in his truck for quite a few years now and they still look good as new, they get better with age.

Thanks guys!
Lastrights- Thanks man, as Laramie would tell you, it is nothing spectacular, but I was on a budget and just wanted better sound then stock. It sounds really good in my regular cab and does the job for me. I only have 4 Pioneer 5 1/4" door speakers all around, the 10" Pioneer premier Sub, an 800 watt Pioneer amp, and just a standard Pioneer Head Unit. I've had it all for about 4 years now with no hiccups what so ever, they may not the be the highest quality in sound but they are reasonably priced and are very durable. I did have the Mosfet LCD Pioneer but for some reason my older Pioneer sounded better, I think the internals are built of better quality. If I want to listen to top knotch quality sound I will just listen to it in my house
dodgeram07 and Indy, thanks guys, been wanting to complete the color match scheme for a while now!
