going to bring back this old post, but where are people getting the carpet from?

[AC&SONS]

Thought I might as well add my effort, although the petrol tank is still bare

Picture is awful, sorry about that.



Used some MDF and stuck some leftovers of my bedroom carpet to it!

[finch661]

oooo loving the carpet :)

Finch661 - I got my carpet from ebay. Comes in a roll of different lengths about 1.5m wide, try searching on there.

Thought I would give this a go today, and it worked out great just got to get some carpet to cover it with, angles turned out spot on, made a difference to boot, not often something works out first time, thanks for template and some inspiration.

Going to have to try a dash next.

No problem at all :) have to post up images so can see what it comes out like :)

I did something similar, but a little different to my clubby boot, but in the same vain, used off cut's of marine ply I had sitting about, handy to just in case it gets wet, I used cooper/s mounting brackets on the rear seat panel so it slots in and attempts to give a factory feel, then a lip at the front to make it self supporting. Made the handle for removing it easily to gain access to spare etc then carpeted the lot with what I had left over from doing the main carpet, just so it all matches, oh then got totally carried away and finished it with a little light.

here is mine, excuse the mess. i have painted the brackets black to blend in and also modified the plans to include a cut out on the far side so i can stash some wd40 and tools/spares

I purchased the boot liner kit from Optimise Automotive. Looks great and fits in place without having to use any hardware.

However, I have a 1" space between the end of the floor panel and the fuel tank. Does this mean I have an earlier, smaller fuel tank (25 liters)?

It's been a project in my garage since I bought the car, so I haven't had a chance to fill up the tank yet. But 5 gallons of fuel brought the fuel gauge up to approx. 3/4.
