carpets installation (Page 1/3)
mencalico SEP 02, 10:51 AM
So I have two sets of carpet, both in pretty good condition. One of the cars is going to the junkyard.

I have heard of people installing new carpet directly over the old stuff because it really keeps road noise down. Could a similar thing be done with two sets of stock carpet? Or is it more trouble than its worth?

Would you put new carpet over old carpet in your home?

Most just get sound deadener to put under their existing or new carpet.
Different strokes for different folks

I have carpeted over my original carpet but my carpet is perfect and wanted to change color. My car has very low milage.

Seems to me you've got some explaining to do.

Mencalico turns out to be a PM scammer. He scours The Mall and sends PMs to anyone looking for a part claiming he knows someone who probably has it. You email that person, he just so happens to have that exact part, you send money which you then never see again. Nor do you ever get that part.

Good save! Thanks.

Since this is resolved, I have a question for Patrick. How the hell did you find an exact quote from 2017?

The post at the top of this page seemed somewhat familiar to me. I couldn't tell you what I had for dinner last night, but for some reason I appear to be able to recall bits and pieces of old forum posts. So in this instance, all I did was copy one sentence from the post and paste it into the forum's Search utility. As long as the parameters are set correctly, the utility works very well... which it did. It found the post from 2017 2016.
