1st Gen Interior Panel Metal Fab
Well, I'm super tired of the ply and vinyl panels in my interior, there's some pins broken, missing, tears, and broken/brittle plastic. It's just a pain, and it's not really adding to the chick factor at all (as well as being durable, and easy to clean of course).
Has anyone in here done a metal fabbed set of interior panels for the rear quarter panels of a 1st Gen. 4Runner?
I'd really like to hear some advice about it, and pics if there's any available.

check out the this folder on ttora: http://ttora.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=18
I don't have time to search it but I know there is a thread in there about what you are talking about. I have seen some nice plywood panels and some done in aluminum diamond plate. I think the user was 'peanut butter' or something like that..
Good luck...

Yeah I have 6x9s and I was going to use my current ones for templates, but I think with durability and the fact that my rig isn't totally watertight, I'd like to hit up the diamond plate idea. I'll keep looking and keep everyone updated.

when i bought this runner there was no interior at all. just the dash, and seats were there. i had no templates to go off of. i used a tape measure and cardboard. you can tell it was my first fab job though, some of my seams arn't the best!!!! i got a sweet piece of stainless steel to go over the rear seat area that hinges. it is a nice lock box when the top is off, but i am looking for a rear bench now so i can take my son and girlfriend together wheeling!!!!
anyone in washington have a clean rear bench for sale????
