Interior change
Has anyone completely change the whole interior to a different color? I just bought an 06 UL, but it doesn't have the interior color I like. I have found a car, also a UL with full interior. Is there anything I should be aware of, any tips and tricks for taking things out, and what I should NOT do? Also what is a good offer for the interior, depending on the condition? Much appreciated. Thanks

Although I assume that this is not what you have, the easiest swap should be between black and saddle as the latter in fact is a variant of black, i.e. black dash, black carpets, black almost anything.
In addition to the dash also the carpets may be a challenge as they are most often mounted before everything else in the cabin and may also be partly glued in place.
What are your two colors?

I want the whole interior. I have the ecru interior I believe, but I want the black interior with the burnt wood edges, but I will be getting the seats redone in either a Bordeaux color, or the current red in the newer interiors.

Way too much expense and and hassle. I suggest instead you sell the ecru leather car and find and buy a nice black interior car. There were tons of black interior LS430s made and sold. In some parts of the country like where I live in the South, black interior cars are not very popular.

That sounds like a major project. What color exterior do you have? How many miles? I have a silver UL with black leather, gray Alcantera headliner, and rosewood. It is a 2002 with 104,000. All maintenance done by the book. I had air suspension issues and converted the car to spring coil.
