Carpet fitting

With the sound deadening underlay in, the wiring runs to the back of the car laid, and the kick panels in, the carpet can now be installed. It was a relatively pain-free process, I just took it slow and iterated cutting a little more each time.

 

Here is the car and the carpet ready for fitting. Before putting the carpet in it’s a good idea to install all the screws that the carpet would cover up: the seat mounts (4 per side) and the seat belt points (2 per side, just behind the seat mounts)

Once the carpet is in the car it is screwed down and slowly trimmed to size. Here is the passenger side.

Next is the driver side

Now with the kick panels the front edge can be finished by tucking underneath the firewall pad and installing the cover plate on the driver side

Now all that is left is to install the scuff plates along the door sills

I have a few things to sort out with the rear interior and once that’s done the sill plate will come off and then sit on top of the rear windlace. But for now it’s looking great and ready to crack on with the wiring…
