That interior makes me "jags"
Same idea here, get the original interior look. Rubber on the floor, carpet round the sides and front.
Please let me know if you manage to find german carpet somewhere?

The question re the front disks and 5 Stud ...
This was a question that I had, wantign to have rostyles all around, but disk brakes in front. The answer, I was informed, was that in the same way an adapter can be made for a 5 stud to 4 for an adapter can be reversed from 4 to 5 stud. Thereby making this, in theory, a possibility.
A good engineering shop, and 2 adapter plates later.

Problem being that the adapter will push the wheels out and I don't want to mess with the beam. It's OK, I think I have found someone in the UK that can make disks with the 205x5 stud pattern in one!

I am sure you can get a local engineering shop to redrill the rotors for you. Surely it must be possible ?
