Does anyone know if there is a carpet kit available that has stitched edges in all the factory places? My original set had stitching on just about all the pieces, visible or not.

I would say that any quality aftermarket kit would have the stitched edging. If you are a real stickler for originality you can still order a factory kit as well.

the key is to get the factory colors. Many are discontinued and the after market patterns and colors could be WAY off

My understanding is that the aftermarket kits do not have the edge stiching around the holes in the drivers mat for the pedals. Apparently this is a very hard place to stich.

And Dr. How much is a new factory carpet kit???

In adddition to the main parts vendors, one of the member vendors, morphenspectre sells these. I have some that look great to me, with stitched ends, etc. He also has great door panels. Joe
