Thanks! It was done by a previous owner. It looks like Aero Comfort in 2007 per the log books. It's a really nice interior and a really clean plane overall.

If that interior was done today with the covered side-panels and headliner, wool carpeting, leather seats, leather control yokes, with removing everything and install labor you'd have a hard time getting it done at any really good shop for less than $17,000, maybe more.

If I was looking for a J even though the interior is 17 years old I'd add at least $8000 value for that due to the materials and workmanship that was used. They probably only paid $8,000-$10,000 for it 17 years ago. They got to enjoy it all of this time and you get a good portion of what they invested back. A nice neat well kept airplane like this speaks "pride of ownership" loudly and almost always tells you much about how the rest of the airplane was maintained.

I also like the attention to detail on the instrument panel. Every color on the panel matches - it's all black - there aren't six different shades of tan or gray with black blanking covers. Even the routing of the usb-c on the audio panel down to the usb-a jack down by the pilot's right leg is neatly done.
