Seats/interior mods

Post by delphis »

hey I have a daewoo lanos, and I love this little car to death, but I need some mods and bad! I need some new seats front and back, a new hood and grill and possibly a cool body kit. If anyone has any suggestions to were I might be able to order any of these mods. Any suggestions on to wear I can also get a new entire dash board?

thanx

you can buy a fiberglass grille from www.360dynamics.ca

now as in seats you can always just use seat covers or go on ebay for some racing seats for like $250. or you can also just find a place that does custom fabric work on the seats you already have.

new oem hoods you can get from ebay sometimes too. as of right now there are no aftermarket ones. or just do a custom job on your oem hood like adding scoops or cutting out vents or something.

there is a dashboard on ebay right now i think.

sorry its not the whole dash though. your best bet for an entire dashboard would be to go to a local junkyard.

I have a 2000 daewoo lanos se hatchback. It also needs a new hood and bumper due to a truck backing up into it. but other than that I love my daewoos handling and ruggedness of the car.

I'm not sure if you can get black out lights for the Lanos; I've not seen any.
I have seen people use window tint or some kind of dark spray tint on them, and I have seen (and made) silver rear ligths out of the 2001 and later, hatch back rear lights.

Here are my lights:

Several people have made this light mod, and some have put new smaller round reflectors inside, too.

There are many body kits available, and many posts in the exterior/body section.

I actually have a silver daewoo 2000.

I also really like your lights is there any instructions on the web on how to mod them? What can I do if I only have the solid red rear lights with the white/clear reverse section?

Unfortunately, the step-by-step instructions are gone form the page they used to be hosted on.

Is your Lanos a hatchback or a sedan?
There is nothing that can be done with the sedan lights.

If you have the hatchback, are the lights you have the ones with the horisontal split with the white at the top & the red on the bottom?
If so, there is nothing you can do with those to modify them.
You would need to get the newer style of lights (2001 and newer) in order to modify them.

Yeah, that's because your car's a 2000/1999...
