Is 3 yrds enough, I think my stock carpet measured out to about 120". I would like to get away with buying just 3yrds if it will cover what the stock carpet did.

The carpet was a little short as I ordered 3yrds and really need 4 yrds but its wider then the car so I'll piece it in up front and the floor mat will cover the line up ..stock carpet was like 125" and this was 108" so for $15 more i could have had extra but it was not worth in to me since its not a show car just wanted the 30 pound savings 
just wanted the 30 pound savings

just wanted the 30 pound savings my stock carpet wore all the way through right there from using the clutch, it first went through the mats, cant use the mat anymore with a whole in it, now i need new carpet, so i think im gonna do this, it looks awesome!

From my measurements you will need a bare minimium of 3.3 yards to cover what the stock carpet did, it is only sold by the whole yard though so I ordered 4. I ordered it this morning and they already got it shipped out.
9 lbs huh? I got my stock carpet down to 24, so that is only a 15lb difference. I will just up the jets on the n20 instead of ripping out the interior again and having to cut my own stuff. It looks good man, I just don't have the time or patience to do it.
