I can't, in all honesty, say that the Ivory interior needs many improvements. Compared to the 99% of cars around that have boring old dark grey everywhere, the brown/cream shades are wonderful.
Having said that, we have changed the horrible handbrake cover to a real leather item (unfortunately, not a perfect match for the existing colours, but still nice) and put some wood grain on the door window switches. We don't like acres of woodgrain covering the stereo and surrounds.
Were we to go further with changes, the main ones we'd make would be to extend the areas of cream colour, like around the stereo (the black looks out of place) but I'm not sure how we'd actually go about that and it's very low priority.
We didn't have woodgrain at all on our '95 and the small area now really sets the interior off (on the '97 model). It's genuine birdseye maple unlike the plastic on most cars and is a truly luxurious touch, in our eyes. As a former shooter who played with walnut and other wood types as gunstocks, real wood has an ambience like no other material (whether it has a place on a car is of course a matter of taste)

Where are those custom door pods made? I'd definitely be interested in a pair.. Get rid of the carpet from the door. Seems pointless to have it there..
