Hi Glad to be on board. Just bought a 964 91 from Calgary drove it home to Saskatoon and plan to repaint and re interior, although it's not that bad
I here Southbound is a good vender for buying the original carpet (cashmere)

Anyone else hear this?

Cheers

Welcome.
Regarding Southbound it may be cheaper for you to get your carpet from your side of the pond, as once you pay shipping and import duty it may work out very expensive.

Hi there Enso!

I also bought my 964 in Calgary (although it originally came from Toronto). It's been happy here in Vancouver for the past 10 years!

Cheers!

Welcome.

Southbound (David Nunn) has an excellent reputation, but as others have pointed out, will not be cheap especially when taxes & import duty are added.

A popular mod on our cars are the use of RS lightweight carpet kits and door panels from Appbiz.com

The kits are relatively inexpensive and Appbiz have a good reputation. No affiliation. Appbiz also supply OEM carpets too.

I'll be heading down the Appbiz interior route in the next couple of months ...
