Default RS Carpet Kit w/pics Added: Link to PDF write-up

Thought I would share a few before/after pictures as I have finally (almost) completed my winter project, an RS style felt carpet kit for my '89 944 turbo, funny how some projects never seem to end.
A Cup steering wheel, two remaining carpet pieces in the front foot well area and possibly a pair of RS door panels will finish this project off.
If you have an interest in the stock Linen seats or interior see my ad in the classifieds.

I added a link to a PDF Presentation on page 5 of this thread.

I started with a 944 and rear seat delete kit from Appbiz.
Some modifications were required to get the fit I was looking for but otherwise very nice.
This was a black felt kit but other materials/colors are available mostly in the blacks and greys though.
The 944 sets may not be on their web page yet but same materials available as the 911 kits, give them a call.

Hey Joe,

No, his carpet is felt, like a fluffier pool table.

Anyway, hope your doing well in your desert paradise!
Take care.

Nice install mj951

You know, that is one of the cleanest street/track type conversions that I've seen here in a while, nice job. Once my son gets older and no longer fits in the back seat, I might entertain something like that but ole blacky is in great shape.

Just a guess here, if you had the interest and the time, I bet you could sell a few of those(as kits) and make a few extra $$ for parts. Again, job well done.
