SPEED INC. has the light weight carpet,looks alot better than the home depo stuff,but its going to set you back about 300 clams.It has sound deadning stuff you can pull off if you like.Shipping weight on the box says 22 lbs.That is the molded pre cut stuff.Nobody has noticed that I have changed it yet!!

Jon,we need a GP here.Come on,what can you do if we get 5 orders?

I need a nice fitting light weight carpet but $280 is a bit steep.

Hawkno1,what did the carpet weigh after you pulled the sound material off?

My stock carpet weighs in at 34 pounds. <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />

My stock carpet weighed in at 36 lbs with the sound deadening but I weighed mine in Pennsylvania. The air is HEAVIER over here <img border="0" alt="[jester]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_jest.gif" />
Is this carpet cut out for the center floor console? I don't have a console <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Just a Pro Ratchet Shifter. I would be interested if the console area is UNCUT.

Thank you Tom!

So what's the total weight savings from the stock carpet to the lightweight carpet, assuming all sound material is removed?

Well here we go...

Tom --- you can have it totally uncut or cut

Everyone else --- You asked for a deal, how is $260.99 Shipped ?

Please mention cut/uncut and the color of the carpet along with the price when ordering.

What colors does it come in? Could everything except the back seat area be cut? From a post above it looks like it is molded. Is it avialable without sound deadening material for a lower price? I want to save as much weight as possible and sound doesn't matter.

Thanks
