Replacing interior carpet

Looking to replace interior carpet. Any ideas where to buy it at. I've looked at stock interiors and a couple of other places and no luck. Sure could use some ideas on this. Thanks

Mike

The interior carpet in our cars is a single moulded unit, I would suggest to check out the 5th gen for sale area and be on the lookout for a Max being parted out or keep checking the local auto wreckers in your area for a Max that you can pull out all the interior seats and then pull the moulded carpet piece

look around, there's still plenty of places to get carpet. it's just patience and determination, i wouldn't pull a skanky old j/y carpet unless is was perfect.

I have to agree with you about pulling out someone elses old skanky carpet, personnally I would pull out my own seats and make attempt to revive my own interior with a good steam cleaning detail job.

Food for thought: but I pulled my entire carpet out about a year ago, soaked it for about an hour in soapy water, and then pressure washed it in my driveway. Worked wonders on it!!! I did however have to hang it first outside then inside for a total of about 3-days so I could assure myself it was bone-dry (the sound insulation on the back takes forever to dry). Very well worth it looking back on it (I'm kinda an OCD clean freak), and it cleaned/removed/freshened spots that no other method could have resolved on the cheap. Looked pretty new after I was done...
