Man that sucks Mark. How hard is it to make a good carpet? I hope you get things worked out well soon.

I had great luck with the fit and form of my carpet from NIFTY PRODUCTS. They are the ones that produce the Catch-All floormats, among other things. I can't say if they are supplied by ACC or not, but the one for my 4-speed 4x4 trans. hump fit like a glove and reached both encroachment plates. Goes all the way to the back wall, too. A little over $100.00 incl. shipping from my local brick&mortar 4x4 shop. Maybe look into that a little?

They are sold by Lund http://www.lundinternational.com/ProductListing.aspx?mmcode=1120352&vqid=2104,772&brand=lund_int

I didn't see anything about 2wd or 4wd carpet.

Couldn't you just cut the a hole for the shifter?

Yes, but the transmission hump is larger in a 4wd than a 2wd and if the carpet is off just a bit, you could come up short on the sides or the fit around the hump could be off.

Went back and looked, and that was the only carpet link in my favorites. Sorry guys, I thought I saved them all to favorites after you PM'd them to me Duncan.

I got the 3rd piece of carpet a few minutes ago. The UPS guy is even hoping
it's right this time.

I believe that is the company that he has had the problems with Dennis.

 

[Mil1ion]

I wonder what part number they sent then ?

 

[m78]

Finaly got the carpet in. And I got to say that this carpet has hardly any form to it like they show in the advertisement.

But that shouldn't surprise me ..

Here it is. haven't put the scuff guards on yet.

Looks good!

Sandbags. Get the slack out as much as you can the use sandbags (*full of course*) to get it pushed as far into the folds and creases as far as you can and shove one over the hump by the heater vents. Then pull the sides to the outside til it's taut and flat, but no so much that you pull a sandbag away. Lay a sandbag along both the right and left edges and leave it for 24 hours.

Damn Mark...I never had any idea how good the blue interiors looked. How does the carpet 'feel'? Nice and plush or flat?

That's a good idea Tom, I'll pick up some sand this week and try it.
I did try lead ingots but wasn't work to good. You can see a bulge on the right side of the shifter columns that the sand bags might help.

And thanks for the compliments guys.
