Pictures as promised. Still need to get pictures of the dash at night. I can not over state the difference the LED bulbs make !

An update.... I am in the process of changing the interior color from blue to grey. Things are progressing nicely. It always amazes me how things snowball !
Looking to have the headliner done in the next few days.

Wow, that's gorgeous. The '84-'87 Regal is still my favorite G-Body as far as exterior styling goes. (I'm sure that's due to the GN.)

BTW: I thought you said this was an '85. What's that CHMSL doing there?

Looks great! What did you use to paint the dash? I am planning on changing the color of my interior as well but not sure if I can go from Brown to a darker gray and make it work lol. What bucket seats are you using?

I used SEM Presido for the dash. The seats are from a regal. I just have generic seat covers over them for now.

i had to look it up also, since I just call it the third brake light CHMSL= Center High-Mount Stop Light
They started in 1986 so that is why is was questioned I put one in my 83' Monte but did not change the rear window so that the defrost lines go around it.

I put the third brake light in basically for the safety factor. I am sharing driving duty with my 16 old son. The way I figure it is you cant be safe enough.
