carpet kits

I'm looking into installing a new carpet kit into my 72 blazer cst. It already has about 1/2" of wool or jute on the floor. I have seen and read about the kits ACC and Trimfit make. And it seems that some say the quality of Trimfit is better. Can anyone tell me which kit is better and why. thx

Re: carpet kits

I used ACC in my Burb and the Trimpart carpet kit in my Blazer. In my opinion, the Trimpart was much better.

Re: carpet kits

Thick felt padding under all of it as compared to the ACC which had nothing under the entire cargo area. Carpet seems to be a closer weave on the Trimpart kit and their stuff has GM restoration Part designation.
