This, as most things, turned out to be a learning process. I thought my carpet was usable except the trunk. |
The first test fit showed there was a noticeable dip in the transmission tunnel so I added two layers of scrap carpet to smooth it out. |
I also had to add a little of that pleather to the hand brake area so the insulation would not show through around the carpet cutout. |
The instructions, which I found on MGEXP.com, listed the order which the pieces should be installed, starting with the inner frame rails. |
The bulkhead behind the seats was a little more complicated since you have to fit the top vinyl piece around the snaps and then glue it all in. |
The battery cover piece just lays there and is attached by the four snaps on the forward edge. |
The real bear of the job was the rear wheel arches. After an hour of trimming I was able to mark the second piece for the opposite side to shorten the process. |
They fit, but there is a difficult seam in the middle, just keep trimming, and then keep gluing and pressing. |
Eventually you get there and life is good. |
The carpet under the seats isn't going anywhere, so I just cut holes around the spacers that I bolted to the floor before the insulation and carpet was installed. |
