Title: Sources for Carpet Sets
Post by: Paddy_Crow on January 13, 2008, 09:10:44
I've tried searching the forums for this, but couldn't find much.

I'm looking to purchase a square weave carpet set for my '66. So far, my list of potential sources is pretty short. I have Millers and World Upholstry.

I would be interested in comments from those who have bought a set. Where did you buy? How were they for price, delivery, and quality? Any recommendations?

While we're at it, what did you use for padding? What kind of glue for those areas that need gluing?

Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch...

have you checked SLS in germany or GAHH.com?

I have also seen ads for square weave carpet in the MB club magazine.

Here's some threads that either have useful info in them, or have posts by people who bought carpet (you can e-mail them by clicking on their user name).

I bought my set from SLS recently and am satisfied with it.  The set came with a rubber mat for the passenger side as well.  The set looks to be something that SLS commissioned from a manufacturer - it has an SLS patch on it - and they seem to be knowlegable about weave pattern etc.  Here's the link.
