Year One stuff is ~$230, fits good.

Stock = 34-36lbs
Year One = 14lbs

How is that carpet lighter? Does teh lightweight carpet still have the sound deadening material on the bottom?

Yeah, I'm curious as to how it's made lighter too. Doesn't it look cheaper?

Lighter carpet material. Stock stuff is rubber backed. Sound deading is also lighter.

How does the year one stuff compare to the stuff speed inc. sells?

I made my own.

6'x3' rolls of black carpet from pep boys trimmed and glued down, done it on a couple cars now, looks just fine. lighter than anything out there i imagine, i bet all the carpet in my entire car weighs about 5 lbs total, lol.

Silverghost, don't you have more interior noise now that you have removed the sound deadening?

here is the only one i can think of off hand


interior noise is not a concern with my car, the thing is loud as hell, and makes all manner of strange noises with the full drag suspension and what not anyway.

I honestly haven't compared the two. Some have said this looks nicer, other have said it looks the same.
