Hydrographics for interior trim

themonkeystail · Jun 4, 2015

Has anyone here used a hydrographics kit for interior trim? Seems like a sweet thing if it's as good as the videos online. I was thinking of doing my interior trim in burlwood.

Also, how does this compare to OEM wood trim, vinyl wrapped wood trim, and dash kits?

I would imagine hydrographics would be too big of a pain to be worth it
There is a member selling some wood trim interior stuff on the FS subforum, maybe check that out.

Try searching for interior swaps too, there's been a lot of great work done

OEM "Wood" Kits only came in one finish, burlwoodish lol.
Cant speak for the hydrogrpahics kit, but I have OEM and it looks nice :party52:

In the for sale thread I'm selling some pieces, let me know if anything.

Hmm, have you seen stuff like mydipkit? Pretty much just get a tub of water, warm it to 30C or so, spray the activator, dip, clear coat. I'll definitely check out the interior trim for sale though. Zero risk > cheap. That would have to be the whole unit, including the electronics, correct? Are they fully compatible between model years? I've got a '99 LX 4-cyl.
