After searching pelican and rennlist, I've come up with nothing, not even a DIY on installing an RS carpet kit in a 993/964. Does anyone do the install themselves? What's the deal? Looking for a diagram or PDF showing which pieces go where. Thanks.

 

I just sent your an album of some of my pics. I just took my time and went slow, it makes sense once you get going.

I'm over in Ballard if you want to check mine out as reference.

I just did mine, the 964/993 kit are different from 911 because of the console and there are 2 different ways of laying out the rear seat area.

Mostly it'e straight forward, follow you nose

On mine I did the sides first, my kit used 1 piece from the front foot well to the rear deck

next the center console, from front to rear

next the rear yoke over the hump

next the rear sides, here I used .25" jute underlayment, ~1sq yd total

last the carpeted deck, for the deck I used .125' mylar sheet insulation for stiffness(the wiring is tough on more flexible material), .5" jute over that on horiz. & vert wall, then added .25" jute on the horizontal. The edges of the carpet were wrapped around the underlayment board making a removable 1 piece mat). The whole unit held down by double sided carpet tape(to allow access to the wiring on the rear deck) and the al. side trim plates

be aware that there are 2 styles of yoke sand several ways to do the seam between the rear wall and sides

Jeff Smiths stock 993RS, note how the carpet is bound all around the sides and bottom, at the rear there is a cloth apron the abuts the window area


MJBs modded rear area, the hump yoke is stock, sides and rear are MJB custom design, Mike cut and custom bound all of the carpet so his layout is a little different, he folded the carpet around the edges of the foam underlayment where the sides and rear meet


Mine w/ the older style 911 RS hump yoke(JMO but I like this design best),

 

Thanks guys

Those pictures are helpful, but my kit has way more pieces than that, i'm not sure why. THere are a few pieces and I'm pretty confused about. Oh well

This picture doesn't even show all of it!

 

Looks like my Appbiz kit. if you want me to swing by and show you what goes where, I'd be happy to help. I'm free all week.
