850 Rebuild and replace carpets

Post by manovlov »

Hy Guys,

I was thinking about to rebuild the hole car carpets. Does someone has already done a sort of DIY one ? The easier solution would be to buy a second good shape one, i presume. But, doing the job by myself, does it worth it ? I've seen videos where the owner glues everything on the car floor... It appears strange to me to glue the carpet.

Any idea on how to ?
