You asked for suggestions and you got what I thought was a good one by someone who has just done a full interior upgrade Maybe state the look you are going for My suggestion is this -Remove all carpet, door cards, stereo and seats -Fit full cage -Fit 2 of these http://recaro.com/uploads/pics/PRO-RACER-HANS_01.gif

cream doesnt go well with the yellow i reckon.too close a colour to distinguish. either go brighter than the yellow with like a white/off white leather interior, or contrast it like dixie said with a grey or black. personally i would opt for the second option, coz i reckon darker interiors generally look classier, but the lighter looks more showy. so depends what you want to achieve

Just thought I'd give Dixie's post another vote.. helpful and true, just sounds like he doesn't like yellow haha (I don't blame him..). I'd go for the contrast though, bright outside and bright inside is too much.

A cop car wouldn't look right with a Group A interior. It's a bit like slapping big round fake tits on a fat chick... not what they were designed for

Just my opinion boys... I think the brock/walky trim sets off just about any vl.

yeah as long as the plastic components of the interior match - then i agree. and yes brock/walky seats are totally gangsta.
