Default Good place in OZ to buy a moulded carpet for E-series?

Hey Guys,

I am in the market for new carpet and underlay for DF.. Figure I may aswell do that all while the entire interior is out of the car for the AU conversion..

Any suggestions or reviews of places to get it from.. Been perusing Knox auto carpets and tru-fit carpets but happy to consider all alternatives..

Cheers,
Nik

I saw a post in a thread that mentioned a place for it. Tru-fit i think was the name of the company. I cant remember the build thread though..... will post back if I do.

I've heard or read a few times that Knox do a better one than Tru-Fit. P

Thanks for the responses guys... Have pretty much decided on going with tru-fit as they have a few extra bits tht Knox dont seem to offer.. :-)

Cheers,

Thanks mate.. Yer checked out all of those ebay things but its actually (and usually) cheaper to go to the company direct... Getting the plush loop pile for $170 odd plus post and a underlay with 2mm or bitumen sound deadner stuff for $110.. Works out to $310 all posted direct to me... Pretty happy with that..

Hardest choice was on the colour but i think I am going to go black...

Which way did you go?

Black may be a little hard to keep clean.
