1990 Mitsubishi Montero Interior Restoration Project

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

My journey deep cleaning and restoring the interior of a 1990 Mitsubishi Montero LS LWB. Rescued from a negligent previous owner who abused it. Thankfully, everything was salvageable. Engine was pulled and rebuilt by Ernest, a great asset to the Montero community.
Not completely finished, still working on a few small bits. Going to start on the exterior soon.
Huge thanks to everyone in the Montero community for the help, resources, parts and encouragement!
Special thanks to: Ernest, Toasty, JohnB, RogueMontero, Owen, Larry and Hagerty!

    Great job, I have an 89, 3.0 V6 manual. I got some creases in the vinyl when fitting seatbelt anchors in the rear door posts and used a hairdryer to make the vinyl flexible and smooth them out. You may be able to do the same on the tops of the door cards.

    This was great; very informative. I have just acquired a 1995 Montero which was owned by a field heavy mechanic - he's a nice guy and the vehicle was well maintained, runs great, lots of spares (e.g. came with 2 O2 sensors) but the interior is pretty rough given its life as a working vehicle. I'd love to do the same to its interior as you did. Your chemicals list is much appreciated. Your engine rebuild - was it needed (eg burning oil or some such) or did you do it simply because it was a high mileage engine?

    I put a 2018 Mirage radio in it. Modified the wiring to work with a Metro 70-1743 adapter. Works pretty nice! Any double DIN radio can fit. The radio bezel breaks really easily but you can 3D print a replacement. You can get the file off Etsy

    Yes it’s from a 2018 Mirage. I got it super cheap and it wired up without too much hassle. I plan on replacing the wheel with a wooden Momo or Nardi wheel. The dye could probably work on the original just fine. Mine was too far gone to try.

    Pacific Blue Leather Dye from worlduph.com (it works for plastics, fabrics) and DupliColor Medium Blue Vinyl & Fabric for the carpet. The carpet needs to be brushed in each direction, before and after spraying. Then once it's cured a few days later. I used a dyson brush roll on it to groom the fibers so it didn't get crunchy
