Default Where are you guys getting Ozite carpet???
Checked Walmart, they don't carry it. Is the only other option at yourautotrim? For 5 yards, it would be $95 shipped. Ive read people getting it for way cheaper, any ideas?

Google ozite carpet and it is yourautotrim.com is the place to get it. I used it in my car and I'm pretty pleased with it so far. Granted it doesn't run yet, but it looks nice!

Is the 6'x9' big enough to do our cars in one piece?

lightweight carpet with no rubber backing. ozite is just the most common used here on tech. IMO, i like spectra carpet alot better because its the exact same thing and comes in 6'x9' piece

are you looking for lightweight or stock-like carpet?

lightweight carpet does not last as long since there is no rubber backing

go with speedinc's carpet if thats what your looking for. will last longer than ozite or spectra carpet. speedinc's is also STILL lighter than stock with more longetivity in lifespan than ozite or spectra

Got the carpet today, I'll be installing it this weekend. 4 yds weighs 11.45 lbs. It's one big piece so I can just match it up to the old carpet. I plan on running floor mats too since there's no backing on this carpet.
