I'm thinking to dye my interior in light blue and cream to match the body and achieve a better look, but does it work.

What colour is your cars interior now. If its a dark colour you won't be able to dye it lighter

I've used their products to great effect, admittedly not dark to light colour but it really is good stuff. It's all about prep work and patience.

Swanny, that's replacing trim and leather except maybe the Harley seat but I bet that's also recovered.
How can you dye black light blue.

Almost all of those pics are colour change using their leather dye products. Of particular interest is the coach seats, 2nd pic down, black to cream. The TVR interior is mine, I did the work, no leather or vinyl was replaced just re-coloured.

You do not 'dye' the leather, it's more akin to painting the surface, have a read here:

Although, in this case I think the OP would be better changing the interior for one from another car.

Yes it does, I used dye from Ryan at Dynamix (in Northern Ireland) to recolour a gear knob and gaiter for my old Carrera 4S. The original colour was dark grey and I recoloured it to graphite grey (much, much lighter). It fully covered it, no peeling, no scuffing, very impressed. The new knob and gaiter was a £20 eBay purchase that was a considerable saving over the proper cost.
