Floor mats or carpet?

[Bob B.]

My intent was to use a reproduction rubber floor mat for my '67, but I have run into 2 problems. First off, my 67's original floor mat only went back to the edge of the seat. I don't like the way that looks, and my understanding is that the '69-'72 mats went all the way back to the gas tank. I bought a full length mat, but really was unhappy with it. The mat just did not lay down flat, it was made out of some plastic material that was extremly stiff even after laying in the sun for hours, and it had no holes in it for the dimmer switch, ect.. So, I am thinking about going with carpet. Are all the carpet kits full length? Who makes the best one? Thanks, Bob.
