Re: lmc carpet
I think the large majority will say avoid lmc. I saw carpet in a ford pickup that looked nice but never in one of ours

Re: lmc carpet
I asked a similar question a while back. I ended up purchasing from Wes at Classic Heartbeat (on here) - and I am VERY satisfied with the quality. Just ordered my 2nd for another truck. Can't speak to LMC's quality other than to say that I've heard a few complaints - but without specifics. All will require that you install the bright lights switch grommet. Understand that may not help - and that you have LMC gift certificates. Might be best to focus on things that can't be "lower" quality for your LMC order and order the carpets elsewhere. i.e. it's pretty hard to screw up something like a coil spring, but on some stuff, quality really matters. I throw carpet in that category.

Re: lmc carpet
There are two manufacturers of carpet kits for our trucks. One is ACC, the other is Trim Parts. I have used both and have no complaints about either brand.

Re: lmc carpet
I just bought from lmc last month. I would not recommend their carpet. It is approx 1/4 short on the passenger side. Very disappointed

Re: lmc carpet
I would also hate to buy a chinese made coil spring. Never bet your life on a chinese made product.

Re: lmc carpet
When I did my carpet research I went with Brothers, They had a awesome summer sale and the reviews I found were very favorable, Not so much for the LMC carpets
