Blue Highlander K5 Interior Refresh finished at last!

Hey guys - I got a Blue CST Highlander K5 back last January almost identical to Pete's (DeadheadNM) and with his help (Thank you Pete!) and a few other great resources like Mark at Motorcityk5.com and Mel at Classic Bowties, I spent the last several months acquiring all the right pieces and parts to put the Blazer Highlander interior back in and do it right. NOS parts came from Mel mostly and all my aftermarket parts came from Mark since he's not only a great guy in general but because he serves the K5 market specifically and has had several special K5 items reproduced you can't get anywhere else. I had the original Parchment seat belts meticulously restored at Snake-Oyl Products in TX. Everyone will ask, so I will tell you they were the best $900+/- bucks I've ever spent considering how most original parchment belts look and the lack of an aftermarket Parchment alternative. I'd pay it again if that means anything. Speaking of high-cost unobtainable items, the Highlander Plaid seat covers are Larry's from Truck World and board member Troy Matos was dynamite helping me get those in only about a 90 day turnaround! So, all thanks go to the various members who assisted me in some way - SEVERAL of you helped me locate seat belt boots, jack tool retainers, console parts and a lot of other odds and ends. Thanks for reading along and if anyone is trying to do the same, feel free to PM me for resources
