964 Carpet Install - Installation Sequence
After having just finished a complete carpet install, here is the glue sequence that has worked for me. With some of the carpet overlaps and finished vs unfinished borders, install in the right sequence is obviously important. So here it is:
- Over rear wheels left and right (1a and 1b)
- Along door to front left and right (2a and 2b)
- Front center. Cut in half and install either side separately (3)
- Front floor left and right. These do NOT glue in (4a and 4b)
- Back center. This is the hardest part if you changed sound insulation (5)
- Back behind rear seats (6)
- Lower back seat to floor left and right (7a and 7b)
- Rear floor (8a and 8b)
The remaining pieces are not sequence critical
- Door pockets left and right (9a and 9b)
- Small panel driver's side (10)
- Pedal cluster not glued (11)
- Small piece front center console. These are actually 2 small pieces (12)
- Small panel passenger side (13)
There are three pieces in the diagram that do not apply to a C2 Targa (n/a)
A couple of lessons learned:
- The original sound insulation is thicker in some places than modern material. That may require some trimming of the new carpet set and impact fit.
- I used the old pieces to cut holes where needed for seat belt bolts etc.
- It is easy to loose track of holes and they are hard to find once glued over
Overall a time consuming project but not hard if you work methodically and think ahead. Hope this helps.
