Got my old seats out and having them upholstered. Also, Have Alpha seat belts with the Inertial reel inbound on short final. They should be here today. Carpeting is also inbound from Airtex. Seats should be ready for pickup Tuesday or Wednesday.  Also have the new soundproofing so I will be pulling out the old fiberglass looking stuff and putting the new stuff in while the interior is out. Got the door panel and pilots side panel on departure enroute. figure I will have my A&P look at the tubes while I have everything out.   Pics to follow.

The floor carpeting costs $239.00.  The sidewall carpeting depends on the year: 55-64 $951.00,  65-later $467.


Mostly pre-cut. If you have the fuel selector in between the pilots feet, you have to do the cutting. Might be more but that is what I can remember from the phone conversation.


Cost me right around $800 with tax and shipping.

where did you get soundproofing material from ?


pre-cut ? cost ?


 


 


Got the sound proofing from LASAR (Lake Aero). Went with it off the roll by the foot. Got it a little over a year ago, cant remember the price. They also have it(did) pre cut for your aircraft. But it was a few $$hundred more. I figure with my week on/off I have the time to do it.

my soundproofing is "gone" disintegrated after so many years. I still wonder about the benefit of reinstalling a new one.

It was like that from the few pieces I have left. I had my interior redone 5 years ago but no insulation was installed or replaced. The only insulation left is above the bagage compartment.  Behind the side panels, it is all wires and tubes and then plane skin.

ok,


Here are a couple of pics of the new seats. Sorry my cell takes small pics.


Talked to Airtex today and the carpet is on backorder. Should be shipped in about 2 1/2 weeks. Frown


That's ok, gives me more time to do a more thorough job with the soundproofing and the Amsafe seatbelts(inertial reel).


Hhmm, was thinking with that down time, I may just have to change those old and ugly looking panhead screws on all the side windows to countersunk. Might be coincidental since my girlfriend said I could put in new 1/4" smoked glass!!!! Glad that she supports my hobbies!Wink I really do support hers!


More to follow in the upcoming weeks as things progress.
