[s-cars] S6 Avant interior parts....what donor sources?

[Tom Green]

The rear seat back should be the most elusive part to locate.  The
sedan seat bottom from your URS4 will fit.  The 100 or A6 seat back
will work but the leather pattern and finish will be different.  The
headrests from a A6/S6 won't match the URS4 front--100 headrests
might.  Door panels probably fit fine front and rear from the URS4
sedan.  You will need to watch texture matches from other sources.

The center dash surround and console would only change in 95.5
with the lighter moving to the diff lock location, but that might be
overcome with a newer lighter/power source.  Other dash parts
are  harder, I think.

You could probably make a composite interior by keeping most of
the platinum trim and a platinum center for the seats in alcantara
or the leather if it's really nice - make a unique vehicle but still  
OEM.

I think front seatbelts are a problem to switch, since the S6 would
need the charge-activated locking retract mechanism and just
changing the belt material is difficult if not impossible.
