Subject says it all, I'm looking to replace my disaster of a pad and, before I just replace standard black with standard black I'd like to see what some other color combos look like. Specifically interested in Light Saddle or Parchment unless someone has something else to say.

<<<<<<< That's my exterior, and interior seat covers parchment exterior with ginger ranger interior. And a rotted beyond belief black cracked dash.

bax that is absolutely gorgeous, geez.

fordfan I like that color combo; you have a bit more pop to your color than mine, but similar.

in the end I chickened out and ordered black. such a wuss.

three stage? color, metallic, then clear?
. No I guess i said that wrong. it is a 2 stage paint. base and clear. There can be several coats. Each coat changes the color because there is green and gold in the paint mix. More coats / passes you get more gold coming thru. You have to be careful with this color to get an even color everywhere. Pain in the ass but it's pretty.

Or try to connect speakers to it!
Looks like a high-end stereo component. Deserves a Mcintosh logo on it!

The owner of this bronco wanted the mahogany and stainless dash. He did not want a glove box or any extra penetrations. I think it could of looked better. He was after a boat / beach feel. Wanted the Teak like padding in the floor. SeaDeck is the product.
