Changing the carpet's?

[Poopensharten]

I have a 172 Cup, the carpet in the footwells is in pretty poor condition, i've hoovered it as best i could to try and get the worst of the hair out (i think a dog has been in it at some point in its life) so the hairs deep in the carpet, lets the interior down!

Is changing the carpet's a major pain in the arse? I know the seats will need to come out which is fine, but apart from that is it worth doing?

Also, does anyone have Phase 2 172 inteior carpet's they dont want?

Cheers, Danny!

Anyone?

Its pretty straight forward really.

I've got ph1 carpet you could have for free but I think Gaz85 will have some black ph2 one for sale fairly soon.

Decent nick John?

The carpets just fucked with hair! Just four bolts holding the seats down aye?

 

[Djw John]

Perfect nick really. No tears, never been smoked in and the hairiest thing thats touched them is my ball sack. But they are blue!

Aye, 4 bolts per seat with wires underneath to be unplugged, also need to take off the handbrake cover and the centre console but none of thats tricky.

What I thought this thread would be

 

[Poopensharten]

Aye ill take it mate! Didn't even notice the carpet was black until today! :S

 

[Djw John]

Cool, just took it out today, I'll hoover it but I'm not cleaning it, bored to tears cleaning my black ones!

 

[Poopensharten]

You want the carpet out of a non cup ph2. It's a much nicer carpet and is really easy to clean.

 

[Poopensharten]

Aye that'll do!

I take it you took that picture knowing i'd be asking you for the carpet aye?

Ph2ing the inside. Been looking at that dash for 10 years this year on and off, time for a change!

 

[Poopensharten]

So what colour of carpet are you going with? I cant tell what colour that is?

Am i better with a Phase 2 carpet then?

 

[Djw John]

Im changing to black because its ph2. The blue has the advantage of being free but thats about it.

 

[Poopensharten]

LOL!!

Are normal Phase 2 172's black aswell?

 

[Djw John]

Aye, ph2 non sports are grey and ph2 172s are black. Dunno about cups, surprised they didnt just put some newspaper down and claim its lighter.

 

[Poopensharten]

Cup's are black!

Well atleast thats what i have!

 

[Djw John]

Black or dark grey like dynamiques. 172 one seem pretty deep pile compared to dynamique. Relatively speaking anyway

Cup carpet is the same material as ph1 172 carpet. I use the term carpet loosely as its like a woven mat type thing and very thin.

Ph1 172 is blue.

Cup carpet is black.

Non cup (FF?) ph2 172 carpet is dark grey and is a thick proper carpet. Completely different material.
