I'll post more pics as I go along. I'm installing RAAMmat now, and will be doing headliner, engine wiring, etc. next. Below is the shifter installed with a stud arrangement instead of bolting it to the floor. I centered it in the car rather than the tunnel (since the tunnel is offset). If I had mounted it in middle of the tunnel it would be closer to the passenger seat than the drivers.

Here are a couple of shots of the RAAMmat sound deadener installed. Pretty easy stuff to work with. I guess it's time to tackle the headliner.  Undecided

I ordered it directly from the company via an online order:

http://www.raamaudio.com/cgi-bin/index.cgi

Rick, the guy that runs it, shipped it very quickly and was very good about communicating. I'd do business again.

I bought one 15" x 50' roll and have several feet left over (don't know exactly how much). I'll probably use it on the inside of the door skins.
