Ronnie Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Guys I would be happy to put the tutorial on my website. I think it would be great. I may need it soon myself.To get the best tutorial I suggest that a new thread be started with instructions from start to finish on installing the carpet. It should be done by people here who have installed the carpet. When you guys are satisfied whit the write up here on the board, I will copy it to my website.I don't mind at all trying to pick through this thread and write a tutorial but since I have not actually done the installation it may not be accurate.

Guest daveagain909 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 matthewlawe, the installation I see looks great. Did the rear covers come molded to the storage area? If so again where did you get this kit? Also, the pictures I see of the provided consol side panels are deffinately for a 1990 or 91. If you send me the name of supplier I will call them and question them on price, quality, molded front and back, and other pertinent questions. Then I will post all results to forum.

matthewlawe Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Click on the link I supplied on this thread on 12/02/08.That should answer your questions. Again I have not heard from the Ebay supplier on this thread and stillcould not get through to Carmotorsports.com where Daveand I purchased our carpet. And yes, the rear deck orcargo area were molded. Hope this helps.Regards,matthewlawe89 White/Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewlawe Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 It just occured to me...I was a carpet installer(homes)helper when I was a teenager. The master carpet layerworked his <span style="text-decoration: underline">magic</span> with cuts here and there to conform tothe various layouts of the various homes. Perhaps anexperienced carpet installer could take care of thecargo compartments. Hmmmm....Regardsmatthewlawe89 White/Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest drtoddh Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Your Carpet looks great!! You asked about the compartment covers. I pulled off the old carpet. Then I saturated the top with kerosene. I let that soak for about an hour. Then gently took a paint scraper and picked the adhesive off like melted butter. The plastic is very tough. No scratches. The kerosene did no damage (I tested an area first). Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 For anyone interested, I have added a tutorial on my website for installing new carpet that was derived from this thread. If you see any glaring mistakes or have something that needs to be added please let me know. Thanks to everyone that helped with the tutorial!!

DAVES89 Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 Ronnie, You did well!~ The only correction I would have is the price. At $9.95 I would buy all they had and sell on ebay. And then move to Tennesse and live like a king!lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Thanks for pointing that out Dave. I also had a great deal on shipping at .00. I have it corrected now. Thanks to all you guys who helped me out with it! I hope someone finds it useful in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
