Carpet...

Hi guys,

I am looking at flooring in the very near future (missus keeps complaining about her feet burning on the floor because the exhaust runs that side), I have looked at two places called Knox auto carpets and tru-fit. Has anyone dealt with them before and are they any good?

I am after getting plush or super plush in a dark red, grey or black with sound deadening underlay (I think that is bitumen in-between two layers of felt). Oh it's for the WB.

Preferences and any better suggestions very welcome. :D

Knox and trufit are both suppose to be good but only going what other people have said

Oh ok, they seem to work out to be about the same price, about $280. One of them does moulded floor mats and carpeted kick panels also I might go with them if they are about the same.

Mate of mine got a carpet set for his WB ute off ebay a couple weeks ago. Pretty sure it was the trufit ones and cost him about $170 to his door.

I used tru-fit in mine only because it was a brand I knew that was available and good quality back when I was twirling spanners for a living. They also had a perfect match colour/pile match for my Chestnut interior.

(edit): They were even good enough to sew the original GM carpet part number tag (that I sent down to them) into the correct seam of the new ute carpet they made-up for me when I asked them.

Call them, I found them very easy to deal with this time last year.

Dave.

$280 must be the price you pay when your local retailer adds 100% markup.

Trufit.
Had this in both my Holden van and XB coupe. I used an older style underlay. That brown horse hair looking stuff. Extremely hard to get now, if at all.

Sounds like tru-fit might be te way to go ;)

Myles, I am ready as soon as you are. Probably save on freight at least. I am still not sure what colour to get though. -.- What do you think black with a dark red/maroon everything except dash facia is what I was thinking?

I did a little quote up using the website. That was including sound deadening underfelt but I might come at them with that price and see what they can do ;D
