Camry & Solara LoungeDiscussion area for every generation of Toyota's family car, the Toyota Camry. Lexus ES250/300 owners welcome! Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance and more.
well i searched and searched online, and finally found a decent black leather ES 300 back seat to replace my tan cloth back seat. since most of the stuff from the ES is compatible with the camry i figured it would fit right in. and it did, perfectly. very happy with the outcome. my all black/leather interior is just about complete. just have to worry about my steering and my hand brake now.
anyway, check it out. kinda dirty, been cleaning house and putting stuff in my car, but they were clean when i put them in haha.
sparco racing wheel is next, along with a new carbon fiber handbrake.

thanks, and yeah, you're probably talking about the back seatbelts? i will eventually either get rid of them as i don't ever use the back, or switch to a black set. if you're talking about the front seat belts, i have a pair od 4-point sparco harnesses on the way as we speak, black ofcourse!
thanks for the comments!

NICE!!!
do you have more detail about swaping the black leather seats?
is yours a 2dr 3gen camry?
I have a 2dr 3gen camry, and I am very interested to swap to black interior instead of the tan color...

yeah mine's a 95 2dr.
about the swap, it was fairly straight forward. the hardest part was tracking down the seats. they fit exactly the same, but the only diff. is that the stock camry seats are 5 piece, whereas the lexus is only two pieces (they just took all those parts and put them together). so there is no folding down action any more. it's just a bolt in bottom, and then a bolt in top. although the armrest does fold down, and it has a really cool trap/secret door behind the armrest. which i'm growing quiete fond of.
but the seats fit right in, no problem there. my tan to black swap has grown quite expensive over time, but WELL worth it. it's almost complete.

i've already done the rest of my interior. the backseat was actually one of the last things left. i have both sparcos in the front, and the rest of the interior is either painted or wrapped in black leather to match. that's why i went for those back seats

that's sucks for no more folding down function...
I like the camry for roomy space and fold down for moving large big stuff~
just one more question, how do you swap the trim on the door and the trim on the side of the rear seats, those trim looks hard to deal with... don't know how to put them out... and of coz hard to find those trim pieces since we have 2dr...
^ are you talking about the door panels? if so then i just got the plastic parts painted black, and then the non-plastic, i got re-covered with black elante leather. same with my headliner and my back deck, and my passenger side panels.
the pieces just snap out, just be careful not to brake those clasps though!

oic... sounds like a lot of work... But nice work on ur car! for u!
Damn those look great. I'm sure you've given some ppl a next mod to do. I really love how far this car came along, looks completely different. You'd never think it looked the way it looked. I think you are my #1 insipration from TN, just to see everything you went through w/ your car and the changes over time. No disrespect to others that have done it too.
P.S. You should just spray the seatbelt latchy thingy and dye the actual belt part.
