Nice work :)

Still havn't ordered my carpet, so i think ill do the same.

Looks really great

Thin rubber on back was good thinking

Q. did you use a glue to hold any thing down :? or did i miss that.


Keep the info and pic coming :thumbright:

On the carpet Will?

Just a few bits of double sided tape to keep the underfelt still while we were crawling in & out, trying to get the carpet in the right place and trimmed correctly.

Dont think it needs much more that that really - the seat belts & seats should hold it all down well enough once they're in.

Thanks Roger :)

The only part of the dash that our speaker interefered with was the bracket that holds the heater/fan control cables, so if the gubbins behind your dash is the same, that's prob the only area you need to worry about.

i've just ordered 1 of those speakers, thanks for the info :thumbright:

not actually checked if the original bracket is in place, i suspect not, so will have to fabricate something

great work btw, looking good 8-)

Did you get the underlay from the same place as the carpet?

Hi Roger, the grey stuff that fits just in the footwells came with the carpet, from MPS. But we got the other thinner, black/grey underfelt from a vendor at the NEC Classic Car show.

Hope that helps...

Steady on Ivor, that only gives us 8 months to get the interior finished, fit the steering column, bleed & mount the master cyl, test & tune etc... :shock:

I might be a bit dim, but i cant find a company called motor parts south on the interweb???????? Are they called something else?

Roger, it doesn't look like Motor Parts South have a website. A phone call looks like your only option. Try 704-435-2692.

They are also on Facebook but are not an active user.
