So with the release of the new Turbo Arrow, I was asked to convert my interiors as well.
I packed them together as a Mega Pack.
You can get the most popular one (Grey) as a separate download here:
https://flightsim.to/file/15401/just-flight-piper-pa28r-turbo-arrow-iii-clean-grey-interior
This version will only work with the Turbo Arrow III. For the Turbo Arrow IV for go here:
https://flightsim.to/file/15399/just-flight-piper-pa28r-turbo-arrow-iv-clean-interior-mega-pack
Installation:
Completely remove previous versions!
Then just drop ONE of the folders included into your Community folder. You can always just have one colour installed at the same time.
Each version comes with a choice of tablet colours. In the standard package I have changed the tablet to black.
However, if you prefer the white tablet you can reinstall it:
- Look for the folder "tablet". In it you will find one folder called "black" and one folder called "white".
- Each of those folders contains a file called: "EFB_ALBEDO.PNG.DDS"
- copy the file with the desired colour into "Community/justflight-aircraft-pa28-turboarrow-iii_beigeinterior/SimObjects/Airplanes/JF_PA28_TurboArrow_III/TEXTURE.VC" and restart MSFS
In addition I changed the colour of the instrument panel to match the interior as well and provided a second complementary panel color with a black base. You can always easily switch back to the colour you prefer
This is how it works for the grey interior. All the others work the same way:
I in case of the grey interior I changed the colour of the instrument panel to grey as well and provided a second black and grey panel, as well as a third black panel with a dark grey bottom. In case you don't like it, you can change it to black and back again at any time. The files can be found in the folders "Dashboard/black", "Dashboard/blackdarkgrey" ""Dashboard/grey" and "Dashboard/greyblack"
Installation works like with the tablet:
- Look for the folder "Dashboard" and for example in it for the folder "black".
- you will find two folder "TEXTURE" and "TEXTURE.VC" simply copy the three files "ARROW_EXT03_ALBEDO.PNG.DDS", ARROWVC_01_ALBEDO.PNG.DDS and ARROWVC_02_ALBEDO.PNG.DDS contained in their respective folders under "Community/justflight-aircraft-pa28-arrow-iii_greyinterior/SimObjects/Airplanes/JF_PA28_Arrow".
- you will now have a completely black isntrument panel.
- if you want to revert to the grey panel again simply copy the respective files from the "Dashboard/grey" folder over
Do not rename the folder or you might get problems with other mods like the "Just Flight PA28 Lighting Improvement" by WeptBurrito2749
Have fun
Best wishes

Must have forgotten to include them.
There's a separate zip for each colour: blue, grey, red and beige. If you unzip ONE of those into your Community folder everthing should be ok already.
Nevertheless you CAN chose different tablet colour (white or black) and different instrument panel colours.
This is how it works for the grey interior. The procedure is the same for all the others:
In addition I changed the colour of the instrument panel to grey as well and provided a second black and grey panel, as well as a third black panel with a dark grey bottom. In case you don't like it, you can change it to black and back at any time. The files can be found in the folder "Dashboard/black"
Installation works like with the tablet:
- Look for the folder "Dashboard" and in it for the folder "black".
- you will find two folder "TEXTURE" and "TEXTURE.VC" simply copy the three files "ARROW_EXT03_ALBEDO.PNG.DDS", ARROWVC_01_ALBEDO.PNG.DDS and ARROWVC_02_ALBEDO.PNG.DDS contained in their respective folders under "Community/justflight-aircraft-pa28-arrow-iii_greyinterior/SimObjects/Airplanes/JF_PA28_Arrow"
- if you want to revert to the grey panel again simply copy the respective files from the "Dashboard/grey" folder over

Thanks for this, it was just what I needed.
Bought the Arrow in the sales last week and I really didn't get on with the look of it, to the point I just didn't want to fly the thing.
It's not hyperbole to suggest that these interiors have completely transformed the plane for me. I wouldn't have thought it would bother me that much, especially as I never clean my car and it has vegetation growing in it!
Additionally, in my rigorous scientific tests, I have found a 74% improvement in my flying skills and a 32% increase in my desirability to the opposite sex. (Some, all or none of the above statements may be true).

Yep, no red interior. The zip files is seen as corrupt in Windows Explorer and 7Zip reports header errors. Probably a mistake, I'm confident Archer374 is going fix this 😉

reuploading. Don't know what's wrong. Upload seems to work fine, but the files are corrupted afterwards.

Must have if you don't like the old&dirty original interiors. Thank you very much!

FYI since the latest JF update it looks like some textures are missing in external views.
Love your work btw!

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm already working on it. Should be online this weekend

And this is only for the Just Flight model???
Archer374 author
Yes indeed. The Carenado Arrow's model and textures are completely different. Also this is for the Turbo Arrow, which has a slightly different fuselage anyway.
I recommend the JustFlight model over the Carenado however: attention to detail and system depth are far superior.
