Has anyone replaced their original carpet themselves? I didn't see anything in the archives...
How difficult is it to do, and did you replace or augment the floor insulation at the same time?
I assume you have to remove the chrome strips on the door sills and forward side panels, but do you have to remove the center console?
If it is a job that's better left to a pro, what is a reasonable cost for labor?

If you have not done this before I suggest you leave it to a pro. The labor should be about $100.00 to $200. The extra materials for the insulatin/padding probably about $30 to $50. If you don't have it yet, and you need ORIGINAL rug, or anything else for your car, contact me. I can supply it reasonably.

Regards Skip H.
