You are in Vic. maybe even in Melbourne so ask those guys. It's a hell of a job to put it in but when done looks very good.

I have installed the e-bay carpets and yes they do fit fine. Allow a day to fit though, take out front and rear seats etc.

yeah the ebay one (located in melb) is the same as knox auto carpets ... I bought my carpet from them and looks great

search knox auto and you should get some pics etc

Just have to say that installation is a bit tedious ... and as said above definitely allocate an entire day to do it ... and make sure you take your time ... and remember ... too little taken off is MUCH better than too much !! LOL (nearly happened to me)

Lawrence or Sam is it possible for you to post some pics of the carpet you installed.

For $180 thats pretty cheap and if it fits fine i might buy it, As my carpet is terrible.

I bought them when they were $140 with $25 postage to Sydney. They fit pretty well, but you'd want the whole day to do it.

Just a pain in the butt, trying to remove the plastic bits off the old carpet in the kick panel area. It's stuck on with a whole heap oh hot glue.

yeah there are 3 levels i think loop pile, plush pile, superplush pile or something along those lines ... 140 is the middle one ... 180 is the top ... thats why there is a price difference

I would post pictures but there isn't much to see once the seats and everything are in ... there is a post with pics of it installed .. if you have a search

had my new carpets put in on the weekend, they look fantastic, I choose the charcoal as its a great contrast with the light grey seats and interior.
