Ok, here's a 'brief' "DIY" about the carpet install.
Well, it being a pretty straightforward procedure, I'm just going to give some general tips that I came across during my install.
This is the box it came in:
The carpet was rolled up into that box- which itself wasn't that big. Shipping took about 7 business days.
After I removed the carpet from the box, it looked like this:
Note the wrinkles. This is from when the carpet was forced into the box. It's a good idea to unroll it and leave it in the sun for a few hours so that it will flex back into the molded shape.
As you can see, it does follow the general mold of the OEM carpet- even has a little 'rubber' mat built in.
However, there shape is very different, as alot has to be trimmed. The carpet itself was alot thicker, along with padding in the front section.
