Am doin it now! lol
I've bored and filled (wiv expanding foam) from the rear seats bak. Thats easy to cover. Tomoz im carpeting the front. Using evp-stick to glue the new carpet to the old. Shouldn't be too hard. I'll let u know how it went.

that reminds me.... must get round to sticking my carpet down.
bought a new one and took the old one out... and just chucked new one in as it started raining and getting dark...
I am afraid of the dark and have this "thing" about getting wet... in that i don't get wet... unless absolutely necessary.
Like if work give me a final written warning for being smelly or something.

OK OK so i do wash but i dont like rain.

it all depends on the carpet you use i used a carpet called poly velour, its that stuff they lay in offices an other high traffic areas.The best tip for ye is heat the carpet up on the back an glue it into place

Yeah that what i got!
K, it was an arse to do. I did it in 4 sections. Passengers side, drivers, centre console and then the back. But it looks mint as ive rolled the carpet back in the centre section so it looks like some sports cars.

Well good luck to ya!
