I'm switching over from black interior. Where can I get some new tan carpet?

Thanks

....&/or World Upholstery in Ojai CA & Autos International in Vista or Fallbrook CA (north San Diego County) - both sell full 914 kits, & both will send you samples free so you can pick the best match for your upholstery in tan (both also sell 914 kits in tan, but AFAIK they don't have basketweave in tan, maybe 75-76 brickweave).

PS - ask for the "Cinnamon" one too, which is tan & brown speckled, as it's sorta close to the NLA OEM #403 "Dark Tan" loop pile carpet that was an option on the original #31 Beige (Tan) interiors (mine was L80E with #31 - so I know).

If you can afford it, go with the German/Euro materials over Domestic, because they're better quality, thicker & more durable - so they'll last longer.

Another option from Belgium is:

FYI - you can google Euro to Dollar for current exchange rate.
I've seen the silver/grey set one member got for his 74 2L & it was top quality European loop pile & proper fit. That member Detoxcowboy had previously put in a Domestic carpet kit from one of the vendors (maybe 914a&p - I don't recall) & it looked like crap within a year, but he was pleased with the Belgian kit. You could PM him to see how well it's held up in the past 1.5-2 years as his DD.

HFD & Cheers! beerchug.gif

I have a top of the line light tan carpet set that I got from Autos International, that I never put in a car. PM me if you are interested. It's one of the best you can get, german velour.

Thanks Tom for all the good leads. Who did you go with and could you send me some photos?

Thanks

I have these and even the rare tight Tan loop. Looks like the German material, but is domestic. The only downside is the material is 3x more expensive $350 a set.

This is what the material looks like.

And there is the plush "camel" at $120 also.

I bought a tan set from these guys 2.5 yr's ago. The carpet fit fine but I was disappointed when I discovered that I see floor board between the seats and the longs. There was no filler piece or strip to cover that area. sad.gif
