Evening all

I'm looking to replace the carpets in my Griffith in the near future.
Has anyone got any thoughts on whether I should go for a pre made set to fit myself or just purchase some carpet off the roll and cut and bind the individual bits.
I'd prefer to do the whole job myself as I guess it will work out cheaper.
Any advice on suppliers or type of carpet to use gratefully accepted.

Cheers Andy

Thanks for your suggestions.

I re-carpeted a wedge a few years ago - and made a fairly good job I think.
One of my concerns with the pre-made kits is the fact that every individual piece has bound edges.
When I did the wedge I butted a lot of the pieces together so there were no obvious seams - like every other car in the world - and I think it made the interior look less fussy.
The only bits I edged were the two front floor mats so that they were removable.

Anyone tried anything similar on a Griff?
Anyone tried anything different?
Any good pics please?

Cheers Andy
