Does anyone know if and where you can get such a thing as DIY carpet dye? My carpet is in pretty good nick and I dont really want to replace it, but the shelf area behnd the seats has become very faded and could do with re colouring. As allways any help appreciated.

Spent part of the weekend hunting round a craft shop looking for some fabric paint to paint the inside of the soft top. Most things have to be washed in or ironed (whatever that is) I think I will try one of them big B&Qs see if they have anything. I will have a look if they do anything for carpets. If you find anything please let us know.

Haven't seen you for a while Dave. Watch out for any fumes coming off the dye that might have a soporific effect or narcolepsy inducing properties.
