PLEASE HELP carpet for TA22 where to get good quality and fit Thu, 10 April 2003 11:53 Go to next message
hi all,

ive just joined and i need some carpet for my TA22, 1971 model.

just wondering if anyone has had experience with knox carpets or similar and did it fit well...

i would expecially like to hear experiences in a ta22 but all cars would be a help.

thanks people

I put a Knox carpet in my TA22 about 6 months ago. Only problem is that I think it was moulded off an automatic so the carpet is loose over the trans tunnell. It's not a huge problem but you end up with some small folds which are mostly under the centre console.
Hope this helps.

hi people,

i ended up going for the knox..fitted quite well..

overall iam pleased with the end result..

the only bit that didnt fit well was the rear section, where the main cross memeber goes under the seat....its been modified so that would explain the poor fit in the back.

I got the Knox super-plush carpet about a month ago for my MA-61. Colour was nice, quality was supurb. The fornt piece fitted nicely, but the back didn't Sad - it seemed to be made for a MONSTER transmission tunel (looked like you would have to slice a piece out of the ecntre to make it fit). However, the professional carpet fitting guts use a heat gun of some sort which kinda 'shrink-wraps' the bumps and bulges out of the carpet.

If you DIY, get some chalk, a good Stenley knife, make little x's rather than circular holes for bolts, measure everything up with measure and by placing it in the car, and TAKE YOUR TIME. I did my own and botched quite a few bits - luckily all now hidden by centre console (they are good for something) and seats.

Good luck,

Justin
