The knackered driver's seat and door card finally got replaced, and I couldn't be happier with it!
I also managed to fix the automatic wipers and lights by repairing a broken wiring splice under the carpet.
Thanks to James who sold me his old seats and the door cards - it's really refreshed the Rangie's interior!

Be careful with LED upgrades, they are known to cause BCMs to fail on cars that were not designed for them, when they fail short circuit etc. I’m sure protection diodes etc could be fitted though.

Great work Sam, looks good with black door cards!! Interested in the gearbox mega flush. Picked up myself a 2012 L322 a few weeks ago, and had mega flush done last week. Noticeable difference, although old oil wasn't contaminated. Also swapped battery as other one was 10yrs old. Few other bits to sort which will be fun! Have a good week.

I made an office chair out of a P38 seat on an old seat base - it was a bit of a faf but it is really comfortable and reminds me how much I NEED another Rangie in my life when cash allows. Good work - I prefer the look of the cream interior but it is now where as hard wearing.

The biggest problem on any car by exchanging the seats is always the connection of the plugs. I bought very much motivated seats for a classic bmw 530d E39 to replace the old ones. By no chance we were able to connect the plugs of the car with the plugs of the replacement seats. The one who could help us the least was the bmw main dealership. After many tries. The car is a Facelift E39 and the seats came from a pre Facelift model, that was the only difference. Complete different story of electrics and plugs. It would have been a nightmare job to make them fit to each other. So I sold the seats again with some profit and put the old nice one in again

Hi, Sam. I had a question. What do you recommend for brushing out and cleaning up the ivory door cards? Mine are not terrible, but upon close inspection, they've got dirt and old sweat in the finer grooves. I imagine a boar hair brush and some interior detailer with UV protectant...but what do you recommend?

@SamsMotors 2 года назад
Hey Carlos. I've used a stiff bristled brush in combination with an interior detailer to pretty good effect. The other one to try on stubborn bits is magic eraser - but be very careful as they can be quite abrasive.
