Interior Carpet

I have an 87 GN and have just bought replacement seat covers for it, but am interested in gutting the interior to replace the carpet as well. Has nayone done this and how hard is it to do as well as where is a good place to get the replacement black carpet that is high quality?

I've seen some guys Dynomat it first to absorb vibrations. Is this a good idea?

Nick

Most of the vendors here carry the ACC brand, fit is pretty good but you will need to lay it out in the sun for the better part of a day to "soften" it up a bit. Not very complivated to install but is very time consuming (get a good heavy duty utility knife and extra blades), and be very careful how much you trim from around the shifter.....

Lay it in the car for a day. Pretty much conforms in 24 hours. Padding comes with our ACC carpet.
