Hello all, I just bought an 03 S60 2.4 and I have scoured the internet looking for aftermarket interior parts with little to no luck.... I am looking for even the possibility to change gauge faces mainly, I'm not even sure you can really, I have tried to look in while im driving but forget to look when I am parked/Have time. I know of Evolve but they mostly do exterior and performance.. Anyone got any ideas?? |

I would stay away from Evolve. For gauges, have you considered going to the R gauges? What are you looking to do to the interior? Little things or something major?

I have an 02 S60 and I'm not really aware of many upgrades for the interior. I guess there are a few things like different shift knobs, different pedals, cup holder for the dash & wood or similar dash coverings. After that you get into higher $ items such as upgraded speakers or stereos, Nav systems.
My upgrades/changes included: 1) Moved from 16" wheels to 17". 2) K & N Airfilter. 3) Window tints. Would like to lower the springs and put on a rear spoiler but $$'s (and my wife) keep those from happening at this time. |

Well It would be nice to switch to R gauge faces but I cant even find those, I'm surprised Heico OR Evolve doesnt offer faces, I really want a euro version (KPH or KMH
whatever). I've decided on springs first (H&R I think) then want to start changing Interior trim (Aluminum maybe) I will Make my own Door runners/Racing pedals (I have designed and had Stainless steel/Aluminum Laser cut for other apps) Now Mine is NOT turbo but I do want to upgrade but again I am having trouble finding something I would be confident purchasing... again no Heico or Evolve offerings I could find... Other things I have been considering:: Modding 05+ (LED I KNOW) Brake lenses to mine keeping original bulb system HID conversion (also fixing Dash warning...) and removing Headlight Wipers, I would love to see an angel/demon eyes conversion! Heico Grille Rims.... WOW WHICH ONES??? Dark in color and flush with fender (Not deep). and so on and so on |

Wow that grille looks great!
I have also seen HID/Xenon for interior lights.. has anyone done this?? Oh my god it looked SICK!! It makes the inside of the car look so much cleaner without that Neon light look. Also looking at changing the Dash LED bulbs to White or maybe like a 8000k Blue? Not sure how much of a task this would be but I personally hate the green lighting they used... |
