Fernies were going to replace my carpets (when I was buying the car) for £500 fitted. Instead I opted for a thorough cleaning with an option to go back and get the carpets replaced at the same price.
However, this might just have been a "special" price as I was buying the car.
I do suspect that they don't do the work themselves and farm it out a specialist.

Having said all this, I just happen to have the latest Sprint with me and there is an advert for Motor Uphostery supplies (01933 223602) see www.superhoods.com
+ AJ's Trimming at www.ajtrimming.co.uk.

Don't know what they are like as I opted for Fabreeze instead !

I don't know why, but Pine freash seems to suit my green carpets !

Cheap: Go down to Carpet Right and buy some offcuts or carpet squares.

Or did you want them to look nice as well as being functional?
