Where can I get a good quality set of carpets to replace my now previously damp dryed out old originals? They are blue with magnolia piping.

I've just fitted some coverdale carpets and they are very good, you can order any colour you like. It was a much longer job than I thought, it took me 2 days.

Do they supply the material only and you do the rest?

Yes they do but after they were recommended in here a year or so ago by people who had successfully fitted their carpets (myself included) they hiked their prices.

Have you considered dying them instead? A lot less work and unless you're the owner of a concourse condition garage queen almost as good. Mine came out fine.

I'd post you a link to the photos but the search function here's been borked for the last few days (or is it just me?).

Just spent most of the day cleaning and sorting the car including the carpets - hoovered and given good clean with vax machine and they have come up pretty well. So not going to write them off just yet smile

I have just replaced my blue with blue piping carpets with blue with magnolia piping from coverdale. They look and smell great! If you want some photos let me know. The only badly fitting bits were the carpets that went over the cubby holes behing the seats, but with a file and a bit patience it looks ok.

Martin

p.s. if anyone else wants pics just let me know!
