Here is the guide for the carpet - http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?104244-HOW-TO-GUIDE-Dying-your-carpet-Black&highlight=dye Not too sure if you can do the headlining, might jujst be worth seeing if someone has a spare black one.

David P Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 That is just about the worst Supra job to pay someone to do and could cost you an arm, a leg and a couple of ribs. Link the 2 heater pipes before they go through the bulkhead and you will be good to go for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just dont go out in the winter unless you wear a wolly hat , mittens and keep a can of deicer to spray the inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Just dont go out in the winter unless you wear a wolly hat , mittens and keep a can of deicer to spray the inside That sounds like the description of a Demisterman matrix.

qwarrior Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Got my new matrix from demisterman for a reasonable price. I think it was about 80 quid. The best quote I had for labour to change it was about 600 quid. I changed it myself in one weekend. There's a really good guide on this forum, search for change heater matrix. It's a ba**ard if a job. My biggest tip would be to label everything, and don't force any of the plastic clips on the dash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) Whilst 'in there' upgrading my dash loom, I fitted a new Demisterman matrix, just in case. It fits perfectly but only has 14 rows instead of the OE 24. You need woolly socks on during the winter.

David P Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 There are no hoses inside the car, just the matrix. There is an outside chance the drip pipe has come off the air con, sniffing the wet patch will tell you which. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David P Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Original Matrix have passed their best before date and failure is a frequent event. P.S. You need to open a thread in the 'for sale' page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
