where have you been getting the parts? scrapyard? or you buying them new. the cream looks awfull when its 9 years old and a bit shabby. are you putting in original fron seats or buckets

Just remember when doing the swap-over, another pair of hands comes in very handy.
I replaced my half leather black interior last year, and put a full leather interior with
door cards in it's place, took much longer as I was on my own.
I didn't replace the carpet as it was black already.
Try ebay as complete interiors come up fairly often, though try to get a later one with crome speaker rings
on the door cards, they look much nicer.

like sound of the speaker rings on door cards. 99 model is very bland looking. will keep my eye out on ebay cheers

Do the IS300 interiors fit the is200? Do seats fit on the same mounts etc?

Apparently there is an airbag light that comes on but you can get a plug to connect which will void it
