Does it have to be in NSW? I got mine sent up from Victoria recently. Seems pretty good, although I've been too slack to put it in so far.

Got mine from Underwood Qld ... all I have to warn you is that it will take you hours to do this.
I fit the moulded carpet into my AE86 couple of weekends ago and it took me about 5 hours at least and countless screw removals & carpet cutting.
At least it looks more presentable now but I wouldn't mind paying someone a carton of beer to do it for me next time.

How hard it it to remove the carpet in an AE86 though?
I know its piss in an A6X if you know what needs to come out!

What sort did you get Norbie? ie. plush pile etc.
Was the quality of them good? You've gotta let us know how well they fit as well, apparently Paul (aka SUPRAGTE) bought some, I think it was Knox, and they didn't fit perfectly.

I have had carpet from tru fit and knox, I would go tru fit again, last time I had knox it was supper plush pile looked good for the first two days or so untill the pile started falling out. After a month I had a patch about 100mm x 50 mm where the pile fall out. Tru fit I have installed many carpets ( 5 or so) and no problems but the were loop(easier to clean but doesn't look as good).

I got the cheapest carpet available (this is for the orange eyesore remember!) but it looks OK to me. Definitely better than what I had anyway! I'll let you all know if I have any hassles when I get around to installing it.

It's actually very easy to take it out.
Only a matter of finding what screws are holding it down and then undoing the suckers. It took me 30 mins to get the carpet out.
It's the fitting that kills you as you have to poke a hole in the carpet for every screw (40+). You'll have strong arms by the end of the day.

Witzl just got the Super Plush from Tru-Fit and his looks ok, but i dont think he is 100% with the fitment, altho to me it looked ok, I have ordered the Super Plush for my KE20 and Plush for Rala's RA28.
It wont take me long in the KE20 as its only got a drivers seat in it!
