I can't get decent photos of the pieces installed, as its dark when I leave for work, and dark when I get home at the moment, so it will have to be on the weekend. But I'm happy so far. The test was today when my wife was in the car. I asked her to pick out the pieces I upholstered. She couldn't find them. I pointed them out, and she said she swore they were always like that. So it fooled her...
I got a bit more confident after reading some more upholstery tutorials at work today.
Hence I give you a two-tone suede glovebox. The lower suede matches the suede inserts in the doors. The upper suede matches the dashboard colour.
I was that confident this time, I even trimmed the insides of the glovebox to match, so its two-tone inner and outer suede. No plastic/vinyl surfaces on any part of the glovebox anymore.
Clipped the glovebox back in earlier (had to use a torch as its dark outside) and it works and closes and does everything like factory but looks and feels a lot nicer.
Its cold and rainy outside, and it gets dark at 4pm now, so small fiddly projects like this are good to do indoors where its warm.
And importantly, just like when I did the leather steering wheel refinishing work, I'm learning new skills as I go. So at the end, I'll know more than when I started.
