• Be EXTREMELY cautious if someone offers to buy your Bronco for more than your asking price and sight unseen. ESPECIALLY if the buyer is overseas. It's probably a scam.

Looking for everything door panels, seat covers, etc. I have a complete Blue Ranger interior set that I would consider trading for.

Bronco Hut will have what you desire, but new or new old stock depending on your budget.

I am not sure it is avoidable, but I am really trying to find some used so it doesn't cost me 2500 for everything before installation. I'm not sure it is doable though.

You should price what you want. I got my interior from them for a lot less than what you are estimating. I did door panels, the three skins and front foam for literally half of that. Finding a good interior that is complete that someone actually wants to sell seems like an awfully long shot. Call and ask for Melissa.

I will check it out. That seems like a lot more convenient and that price is much more manageable. Thanks for the info. How did your interior come out? What color did you get?

I went with a hybrid combo. It has the ginger vinyl as the main color, but the inserts I went with the Explorer cloth. It was never a factory option together, but both are factory colors. I can take more photos this evening if you want some.

I'd love some more pictures, that looks amazing. Great combo!

I would stay away from Bronco Hut. I bought and paid for my seat covers in September 2018 and still have not received them. I have to call Melissa every few weeks and I get the run around every time. At this time she is indicating that they do not have anyone to complete her seat covers.

Justin, welcome to Classic Broncos. I noticed this is your first post. I have been a member here now for years and this is the very first negative that I have ever heard of about Bronco Hut. This might be a silly question, but have you asked for your money back so you can buy them somewhere else?

Bob at Suburban trim in Arlington Heights, IL was able to find the ginger houndstooth for my interior refurb. Feel free to call him and see if he has any left or, if not, where he got it. Here is a pic. Good luck

Houndstooth I assume? I went thru much of the same a few years ago. The all vinyl covers from BroncoHut are made by a supplier and seem to be really nice. The houndstooth ones are custom made for BroncoHut by whoever they farm it out to, and quality seems to vary. Mine were made by a guy in California. Some people are happy and others, like me, not so much...

I sent my last set of houndstooth covers back three times before I got a set that was close to original stitching. I settled for what I have but I’m still not happy with the quality of the work. Many of the seams had to be redone and I ended up paying more to have them fitted than it would have cost to make them again.

If I was doing it over, and I have posted about this before, I would seriously consider finding a reputable local shop and have them make and install them using material from SMS or Original Auto Interiors. That eliminates all the finger pointing I went thru if the covers don’t fit the seats.

for what it's worth I recently sourced the door panels, rear quarter panels from this site for reasonable prices from good reputable members
I am only really in need of a drivers seat to replace, all the seats may be more of a challenge from you.
PS Melissa at broncohut for the win I've purchased interior items from there before and they are great

The houndstooth thing seems to be the sticking point, and I am not sure where I read but I have heard that Bronco Hut stuff was, at times, outsourced to other companies. That makes it pretty tough.

I wish I was doing blue ranger houndstooth....I literally have everything for a complete interior, but it would not go well with Boxwood green!

Yes I ordered the tan vinyl with the houndstooth inserts. I also ordered door panels and rear quarter panels which I received in a timely manner and they were great. However the issue is Melissa had indicated that I would have them within a month and half after I bought them. It has been seven months so far and she continues to give me a Litany of excuses as to why the seats are not completed. So for the past month she's been telling me that she has somebody that can make her seats again but then continues to tell me over and over again that she needs to get a price from this person/company. Thought should have been a 10 minute phone call. I didn't ask for my money back because the door inserts and my rear quarters are a specific color that will match my seats that Melissa is supposed to complete.

Melissa is good to work with and will make sure you are satisfied. It just takes some patience sometimes when she has supplier issues. I was in no hurry when I ordered my covers and didn’t install them for over a year after receiving them.

If you do decide that you can’t wait any longer, the vinyl can be matched. There are more details in this thread that may help.
