Re: Interior Carpet question.

Well that explains a few things. The riser is where I was concerned about. We have the carpet hold down that goes at the back of the cargo area, but will have to fabricate one for the front hold down. The carpet that hoes on the main tub ( where the seats are) ends at the base of the riser with an unfinished edge. Is there some kind of hold down that goes there also? I will probably just get them to send me a piece of carpet for the riser. Thanks for the replies!

Re: Interior Carpet question.

Sounds like I have a different carpet kit than you, I have 3 main carpet pieces, one that goes from the firewall to under the front seats, another that goes from there to the riser and then the piece that goes in the cargo area. The second piece has a finished edge that goes against the riser.

Re: Interior Carpet question.

The carpet kit I bought years ago came with those extra pieces to go over the wheel wells and fuel riser, my burb never had those so I didn't install them. Plus they just looked bad.

Re: Interior Carpet question.

I found a couple front carpet hold downs. It looks like that chrome piece mount about a inch from the lip and a strip of rubber goes there in between the chrome hold down and the lip.
