Interior Mods

Post by Triton »

I just wanted to post some pics of my Momo accessories that I have so far on the interior of my car. I have Momo Grip pedals, Momo brushed aluminum sill plates and a Momo shift knob. I also have a surprise coming later this week and I will post pics here after I have it installed. Take a look!

GT_03, There is a website that sells momo stuff. I think its http://www.ltbmotorsport.com They have the old style sill plates on clearence and the new ones are available as well. I was contemplating doing my interior in momo, I went ractive instead. I found a matching pedal shift knob set that compliments the graphite color of the interior and adds some red for color. I don't have a digital camera to take pics, DAMN I WANT ONE!!!!! Triton your set up looks great

Thanks for the compliment! I actually bought my pedals from ltbmotorsports and will probably be buying the dead pedal cover to match them as well. The sill plates they had on clearance were not the ones I really wanted. Mine are the brushed finish. I bought them on eBay for even less that what ltb's clearance price was. If I didn't win them on eBay, I was going to buy the diamond cut finish from ltb.

The pedals were not too difficult. You have to remove the stock rubber covers to install them. I will swap them out for winter use.Momo also makes shift knobs for automatics. It would be a little more difficult to install, but it can be done. Take a look at them.I did order the dead pedal cover today and I should be getting my "surprise" installed later this week.

Short, 21 1/2". I just checked ltbmotorsports and they have the brushed ones in again, just like what I have. They didn't have them when I bought mine originally.For anyone interested in the sill plates, be aware that the adhesive is not that great. And you are sticking them to a textured surface. They did not stick at all for me. I went to the store and bought 3M exterior double sided tape. I haven't had any problems since. Just a little tip.

if you loosen that c clip on the shift boot you can move it up and use a pair of visegrips to close it around the thinner top groove that way the boot goes all the way to the knob . you'll see what i mean. i bought my shiftknob the second day i had the car and have had no problems with the boot moved up.
look my sniggies, i had a strizz-oke in my brizz-ain okay,you know what im saying. so i cant move all good. but thanks for mentioning that .thank you very much.athf4evr. click here! you know you want to!!!

I tried to loosen that clip, but I could only get to it through the leather boot. I was afraid that if I messed with it too much, I would either leave marks in the leather or tear it. So I stopped trying to mess with it. How did you loosen yours?

This may be a stupid question... but where did you get the floor mats? Those look sweet with the Vibe/Pontiac logo and all. I have the stock carpet mats and they are nice, but yours look even better.

I bought the mats before my Vibe came in off of the order I placed. They are really nice and great in the winter. I decided to leave them in the entire year to help protect against rain water and mud. I love them. They are definately a really good investment.

i was able to wiggle the boot down .mabey the boot is different on a gt. try cranking the heat aimed at the boot to loosen up the leather. or you could pull the trim and take the boot aloose from the bottom.

All your MOMO stuff looks great! How are the door sills holding up from you getting in and out of the car? Just wondered how durable they were cause I relly like that idea.

I kinda answered my own question when I was looking through all the Vibe Accessories. I found those mats come with the "all weather" package or something like that. They look really cool, I wouldn't mind having those in my car just to protect against the crappy Ohio winters and all that stuff.

Usually people hit the gray plastic just inside of the sills if anything.
