Faker,

Step by step, and piece by piece, we WILL have a complete authentic interior.  SC80, GreenMeansGo, and myself have joined together to cut the costs of each piece down, so as a group, we can afford larger and greater items!  If one is trusted enough, I believe SC80 would like to extend our group out to more individuals, so the costs can be reduced even further.


So far this is what we have coming my way for production tooling... every piece 100% authentic and to be remade in carbon (except the switches... maybe  Wink ):
E-Gear switch surround
Steering wheel
Center steering wheel (airbag section)
Interior switches (see SC80's post above)

The next items on the list will be:
Center console
Center console plate
(possibly) RHD dash board
Glove box
...

I am probably forgetting some items... I'll edit this post if I am, sorry in advance if that is the case... it has been a long day.

Update:

From what I understand, we have secured the following items, every piece authentic:

Front emblem
Steering wheel
Airbag center
All interior switches (windows, doors, accessories, lights, E-Gear... etc.)
Center console base
Center console upper plate
E-Gear plate
Handle
Glovebox
Air conditioning surround
Radio cover lid
Steering column covers (upper and lower)


This list is growing as our goal is to have a complete interior.  So far the members of our "authentic Interior team" is SC80, GreenMeansGo, and Hughes.  I will continue to post updates as progress is made... this is all very exciting.

BIG UPDATE!!!

What a wonderful day it is... as the shipment from the UK came in with the interior!  I am going to take an inventory of all of the pieces, label them, take their pictures, and then post everything.  Expect that post to be early next week... this weekend will be busy figuring this all out and properly labeling every piece.

This is what came in the shipment, All 100% authentic Lamborghini:

Steering Wheel
Steering Wheel Air Bag Screw Covers (2 small plugs, right and left)
Steering Wheel Air Bag
A/C and Radio Trim piece
Turn Signal Switches (levers)
Passenger Handle (RHD)
Upper Steering Column Cover
Lower Steering Column Cover
Center Console Top Plate (RHD)
All Top Plate Switches (except the E-Gear controller)
Center Console Base (large, main bottom piece)
Center Console Glove Box Trim
Center Console Glove Box
Center Console Glove Box Liner
Center Console Arm Rest
Center Console Upper Close Out Trim
Dash Switch Panel (RHD)
Dash Switch Panel Ring Trim
Dash Switch Panel Dash Trim Surround (RHD)



I look forward to posting everything on here for everyone to see!  I will start engineering how to make up all of the tooling. Once that is complete, I will have my work cut out for me... very exciting!

A simple way would be that I'm searching for an interior (like You) for the Lp640 too and if I have or can get a part that would complete the package and help others out I'd be willing to lend a Hand.

Buy in's... Right now there isn't a "buy-in" price, I feel that this is something that SC80, Green, and myself need to still discuss. Once I finish all of tooling, the pieces will be available for other members, no problem! If a new "member of our interior team" wants to help out in the next purchase, there will be special pricing granted to the members involved with splitting the cost.

Please note that the parts I have here are from the Euro murcielago so they are designated as Right Hand Drive. I personally am going to convert my build to a RHD, and I believe that SC80 will have his build RHD as he is over seas, so we will need to be completing the interior in this fasion. This would include the dash, and a few other components.

Also note, some of the items that we have already are made for either driving side, these canbe used regardless of your build specs, but note that there will also need to be a set of LHD components for those that would prefer this setting.



Aside from making factory pieces off of factory pieces, I will NOT mold any members piece without their approval. I really only trust tooling that know was built by very experienced hands, and would rather take my own molds off of the authentic pieces, so if any member has any parts that could help construct this package, I would like to get my own mold off of the original piece if possible.
