carpet kit, best? Options

[tomh]

I am intrested in installing a carpet kit in my 72.
Whitch one of PP's is the best.I want to go gray.

How many hours app. does it take?

There is no 'best' unless you find a NOS factory set. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Some difference I have noticed:

Some kits are more factory like and require more work to install properly (steering column is a hole instead of a notch, the hand brake must be removed, etc.) You get better coverage/fit at the expense of more work.

Some kits have a sewn in heel pad, some are pressed in and bonded (the latter lies smoother and doesn't ripple.)

I've observed the surging is nicer on some as well, where it doesn't crinkle up as much around tight bends.

Then there is the whole choice of what actual carpet you choose - that can also vary wildly.

My choice? Morph kit with european loop. Best mix of price, ease of install, and quality.

Install time for a first timer is probably a couple of hours max. There are many threads on installation tips.

Best of luck!
