Re: Carpet getting installed
New black carpet in mine, too. The light blue carpet added to just too much blue overall..

Re: Carpet getting installed
Not to sound silly, but what is the best way to install seat? Do you cut the carpet out around the base of the seat track, or is it best to glue carpet down, then punch holes through for the bolts. I know that trying to drill them may cause carpet to unravel. What are some of the ways that you have had the best luck with?

Re: Carpet getting installed
Search for the Treads on it. I’ve heard different techniques from a punch, to melting the holes in with a Soldering Iron. I’m gonna follow this though, because I’m putting a new carpet in mine sometime this year

Re: Carpet getting installed
SUPER......and the carpet is nice too......I located the holes in the carpet with an awl..can be done from underneath the truck push up thru the reinforced mounting nuts.....mark with tape and or sharpie....use 3/8" punch to cut clean hole in carpet.

Re: Carpet getting installed
I also marked using an awl from underneath, but I then used a 3/4" hole saw slowly IN REVERSE to drill while supporting the carpet above the floor.. If I recall, this method was shown in a video on the Stock Interiors website. Punch sounds like a good idea.
