does anyone have the RS carpet kit PDF?
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 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),
