I’ve heard it’s not to difficult. Didn’t want to mess it up and regret not getting it done properly.

Not yet. Will do in the next few weeks

its not that hard to do, but it’s easy to make a mess of it too! If you can get a mate to hold the roll of carpet while your sticking it to the metal and forming it around the curves it will really help. Also get a set of trim removal tools if you don’t already have them, and lots of sharp blades. Cutting carpet really dulls the edge of a blade.

Advice needed please
6mm ply what do people do on the OSR panel as nothing to push the hidden clips into to get the panel fitting flush

Hi all the upper panels don't have fixing points ( very annoying ) im trying the Velcro route onto the backing carpet. i left the carpeted panels in when i carpeted the frame and for that edge i Velcroed a strip of wood in to bring the level up i did same on front panels and rear door tops

if this fails i will bond a strip of wood into the gap stikoflex or grip fill and drill 8mm holes and try the clips pushed in if that fails i ll glue the clips in

other i think just bond them in .
