the dye works good for awhile...but you have to remember that your dash, seats, and all plastic in the interior is also faded...we died the carpet in my old mans 1980 and it look pretty good....

if i where you i'd try it out and see how you liked it...

I tried it in my '85 and I wasn't pleased with the results. I going to take it to a upholstery shop and see if they can make it look better. It may cost a little, but I'm sure it'll be worth it.
