E-350 Carpet Removal
Does anyone have experience or recommendations ripping out the interior carpet of an E350 van? I work for a habitat restoration company that works in remote areas doing work that gets things pretty darn filthy and damp. Most of the company vehicles can handle this, but with the 2002 E350 we're spending a lot of hours keeping the carpet from becoming a moldy mess, and I have gotten tentative approval to rip it out. I dont have a ton of experience with interior work, so I am hoping someone on here can give some guidance about any pitfalls I might expect or what i might have to do to ensure I dont screw up anything in the vehicle. Hoping to do it in house as the vehicles got a wicked amount of miles on it and our finance guy does not wanna spend a ton of money sending it to a shop.

It's a big job
Once you get all the seats out, you start pulling interior trim panels
It goes pretty easy after that
Figure about 6 hours to complete
You are liable to have some wiring to deal with
They do not hide the wiring as well in carpeted vehicles
Might want to switch it to a rubber mat instead of bare metal floor
