The seating is the 1996+ model with two bucket seats and a rear bench seat, all in chocolate leather. The seat design is bulbous with strong curves and striking lines. The covers are stitched with decorative double stitching on the outer seams in silver thread.

The side trim plastics were repaired and repainted. They were then rewrapped in a broad patterned vinyl. The sidewall panels had decorative inserts made of chocolate leather to match the seats. The armrests on the sidewall were wrapped in matching vinyl. The draft extruder that surrounds the door is also matched to blend in with the whole interior.

The floor covers were manufactured in carpet in the color Gravel, a speckled design of light and dark browns. The carpet was edged with a mesh binding in brown color, near maroon. The carpets include hard-wearing heal mat covers in front of the controls.
