I ordered a couple of metres of black carpet from here the other day. It hasn't turned up yet but I'm assuming it's going to be roughly what I'm after. I googled for 'car upholstery' for this one (comes up on the second page).

halfords sell it, but it's not cheap - you might need a ripspeed shop though.

doesn't your local car audio place have rolls and rolls? they'll probably sell you some. the must do millions of installs.....

Had a look at Halfords - couldn't see any, been to local stereo install shop - they are rip off merchants!

I'd try www.caraudiodirect.com. They do all sorts of installation type stuff.

Tried that - there ain't many Pug 306s in scrappys round here! Struggled finding a wiper motor - I had to get one form a yard down south.

You lot must bash them up more often than us up North!!!

Put something else in there - like an "Uzi 9mm" (say in a deep Arnie/Terminator voice) - yeah!

I was gonna say Pugbitz - they in Manchester just off the motorway.
