I used to run a car audio shop a good few years back and we used to keep rolls of different coloured carpet that 99% of the time we could match to any car!  :happy2:

You need some pub grade carpet, it'll match your seats fantastically when you have them re-trimmed in that flowery stuff with tassels on that sofa you were admiring the other day....

Sideways yo!

I thought this one more in keeping, the white would compliment the carpet perfectly.............

Do you have any audio shops near you VC?

They always stock audio covering and would sell you some with no problems. My local audio shop brought out 4 samples to the car, so I could compare them. Look in the how to section for my arch install to see the pics of the boot to see how it matches up. :smiley:

You are right in the fact that Audio carpet is stretchable in both weave and weft directions and so moulds better to uneven surfaces. Carpet glue spray works wonders with it too. :happy2:
