Default New carpets

I am after replacing the carpet in my S, does anyone know of a good professional outfit to do it, and about how much might it be?

Thanks

Find a clean set ifrom a breakers yard. Less hassle, cheaper and you could probably do this yourself

We have a VAC carpet cleaner, I used it on my mats and they came up almost new again! might remove the seats and do the whole interior in warmer weather next year

Another option would be to get some OEM 2 piece mats or the Muz mats which cover most of the visible floor plan of the car.

My driver's side carpet is knackered as the previous owner didnt have mats installed so I bought the OEM 2 piece kit.

They come in preformed shapes and are easy to replace yourself.

It took me around 2.5 hours to complete the job, with very little knowledge of the S at the time, and you only basic tools.

As said, a breaker is your best bet, just ensure they describe the condition accurately.
