I changed the most of the interior in mine. It started out as a facelift 75 with light oak interior and black leather seats.

It now has all the dark plastics from a ZT. A ZT gear knob, which is a big improvement over a 75 one, as it's
much shorter and gives a more positive gearchange. It is now fitted with a real walnut dash. Steering wheel from a contemporary model. Having been through light oak, and walnut wheel, I decided I didn't actually like the feel of wood steering wheels. I did have a ZT wheel for a while, but then came across the contemporary wheel. Nicest feel of the lot IMO. I love the look of the ZT seats but I don't think they would actually be comfortable for me as they look quite narrow between the bolsters. I also think it could make getting in and out more difficult for me as I have a back issue.
