Carpet sets

Post by daved »

Looking for opinions on where is the best place to buy a carpet set for the 124 Spider. They seem to be available from most of the Fiat vendors as well as Amazon. Ebay & a few other places. Seems to be quite a difference in price. Wouldn't mind paying extra for better material or fit but would hate to pay more if there was really no difference

I am a believer of you get what you pay for 8) however, there is a fine line between paying too much for value :?

I would think our vendors would treat us right :wink: AR :idea:

This should be fun :mrgreen:

purchased carpet from Vicks. quality was nice, fit was horrible. By this I mean the corners were rounded for manufacturing easy, so it left gaps in the corners where the underlayment was visible and i had to put trim pieces under the carpet to improve the look. If I had to do it again, i would make my own.

The Search feature here works pretty good. There are past posts on just about any subject, not that there's a problem starting a new one.

Here's one on carpets. There's plenty of others:
