Who's replaced the carpet in their SuperCab and where did you get the new one from?
Looking to put one in mine because the carpet it came with just looks nasty now and having a hard time finding one for a decent price Thanks in advance! |

I went with Automotive Interiors (http://www.automotiveinteriors.com), cut pile with the insulation (mass backing?), $230 total. Looks nice. Others have mentioned ACC, think they are respected.

Got mine through stockinteriors.com Also ACC carpet. Pleased with the product.

Mike I looked into both Stock Interiors and Automotive Interiors and there is a MASSIVE difference in the price incl shipping between the two with AI being the cheaper. They both seem to be the same ACC carpets sold with the same options. You said you were pleased with your carpet right? Think I'm going to follow in your footsteps and go with AI. Any huge amount of trimming you had to do? Thanks for the help and advice!:-drink |
I ordered my carpet from ACC, and got it with the mass backing. I'm happy with it, but my mistake was in not removing it from the box when it first arrived. I left it all folded and rolled up for a few months until I was ready to install it, and some of the wrinkles were set permanently. The mass backing held them in place, mainly on the hump, and no amount of heat would relax them out. It's kind of like a Shar Pei in that area.

Where'd you find that? Would like to finish that off nicely while I'm replacing the carpet and I am thinking about getting a little rubber boot like you find on the bottom of walking sticks to make it non-slip! And how in the heck did you put three point seat belts in the back??? I've got lap belts and the same bench seat and would love to put another set of three points in the back! I've done the front ones but not without a bit of messing about extending the buckle side. Need to know where you got all the seat belts now! |

The dimmer switch grommet came with the new carpet, if I remember correctly.
As far as the rear shoulder belts, this is a cut and paste from an earlier post: I haven't done a write-up on my seatbelts, I guess I should. I got the seatbelts from a late '80's early '90's SuperCab, the retractor mounts to the original seatbelt mount, the upper anchor to the sidewall, and the end mounts using one of the rear seat floor bolts. I reinforced the upper mount by splitting the welded seam of the SuperCab side window, and dropping a plate from the top open access with a tab that I could weld through that seam. The plate has a hole with welded nut that lines up with the drilled hole. No paint work was needed this way. I dyed the belts black using SEM. They look and work great. It all sounds much more complicated than it actually was. David :) |
