Henry gets carpet

Hi All

Have not been on for a while, but finally put my carpet in yesterday. Not as tough a job as I thought. Went ahead and documented as I have most of the work on my truck. Just trying to give back to this site which helped me SO much with my build.

Process here along with all my other upgrades. Carpet

Hope it helps someone.

Nice job!

I bought mine from the same company. I'm really happy with the quality. The only thing I wish was different is up under the dash. I wish it was longer up there. If you open the door and step back, you can see the sound deadener. I'm sure I can come up with something to finish that off.

Sorry did not get the messages. May try to PM me on here as my junk mail fills pretty quick and I empty often. For some reason alot of women want to have affairs with me and I keep winning the Nigerian lottery.

You made it look easy. Every time I do the carpet, I always manage to cut it short, have big puffy areas, and generally mess it up.
That is a great build page on your project.
I'll check it out properly when I get home, rather than at work, or something tells me I WILL have to win the Nigerian lottery.

Nice job OTM

Looks really good; I bought similar material and tried to form the firewall contours myself. I did a half fast job, yours looks good.
Curious on hardware used for seat belt anchors, at door post and centre of floor.
