Took me a while to work this out so I hope it works.

A few before and after shots of the P&J's carpets.

The joy of water ingress My rear ones had to be replaced by the previous owner. Car still smells slightly damp even though it's now kept in a garage. Ah well, that's the TVR life

Nice job. How much effort is it to do this realistically and is it a particularly skilled task?

Thanks,

Steve

I stretched it out over four days but I was on my own most of the time and like I said tended to wander off and have a coffee every half hour or so. I also encountered a few fiddly bits like the captive bolts on the rear hood section coming adrift and spinning round while I tried to tighten the nuts.

As for difficulty, not really. Like most of these things once you've done one it gets easier. If anyone is doing this within reasonable range of me I'd be glad to pop along and help.

Oh, Coverdale suggest two tins of spray glue. I'd say get four to be on the safe side. Heaven help whoever has to do the next set of carpets on my car
