Hello
Has anyone purchased and installed the replacement floor carpets that are on eBay? I think Fierostore sells the same one

I am interested in buying one that hopefully matches the 88 Beechwood interior in my car, but can't seem to find any good pictures of this carpet installed. Fierostore website has no real useful info or photos of this product that assist in making a decision

The ad on eBay is just as bad.. no install photos, and the brown carpet shown in the ad (which seems to match what I want) is not even described as to what color it is so I can order it...

Purchased mine from AAC. Carpets are NOT just a drop in and go install. They are cut in the general shape but a lot of cutting and trimming is necessary. Seats, center console, rocker panels and seat belts must be removed. I placed the new carpet on the garage floor, placed the old carpet on top of it, wiggled it around until I was confident I had enough extra on all sides for the final trim. I marked and cut the holes, bolted it down in the car and did the trimming. Each side took me a full day in an air conditioned garage. I'm very satisified with the results. I ordered the standard grade carpet with the bonded pad and used a lot of the original pad for additional cushion. Oh, it's also a good time to run additional wiring to the rear of the car along the console tunnel while everything is out

I’ve bought a few ACC carpets for different vehicles….always a good fit. Don’t remember to ever having to trim them.

I'll try and send a few over in the morning.... They are on my phone and it's a pain to send them to the computer then resize them and then.... well you know.

Sorry, Picture 1 is fuzzy but I wanted to show where i used some of the original padding to supplement the new carpet. You will also see some silver tape I used to secure additional wiring I ran from front to back for any future projects. 2 & 3 show original carpet and then progress of the install of the black. Please note how I bolted the carpet in place prior to the final trimming. #4 is of couse the drivers side work in progress.
