1956 Carpet kits - are they all the same?

Are the carpet kits offered by all the different companies coming from the same place for these trucks? If they are not I dont want to think I am saving $50 going with store B and infact get a capet of lesser quality.

What is the best carpet kit out there?

LMC is always a pretty safe bet. I bought body panels and a steel cowl induction hood for my '78 Blazer from LMC, and they were great parts. I've seen their carpet in friends' rides, and it looked great.
