I'm getting ready to restore the interior of my 1971 MGB roadster, and wonder if anyone can offer a recommendation on where to get different kits, particularly carpet sets... There's a "deluxe" carpe

I bought a carpet set from www.britpartslocator.com. They'll make it out of pile or loop; whichever you prefer and in whatever color. I haven't gotten it yet to check the quality, but they have excel

I know I've mentioned this before, but for the benefit of new listers, IMHO when dealing with roadsters it is prudent to avoid gluing carpet to the floors wherever possible. A little unexpected rain

IMO, it all depends on your personal feelings about dealing with the carpet. The rear wheel boxes and the tunnel take a fair amount of stretching and fiddling to fit properly. It is doable. The molde

And along Max's suggestion, I would recommend the shaped tunnel piece for this reason. It costs a little more, but technically you can just put it over the tunnel without using adhesive since its sha

I used the Moss "deluxe" set in my 74 B last summer and am very pleased with the way it looks. I used velcro to hold down the front floor carpets and only glued in the wheelhouse covers, the tunnel c

Having fairly recently removed a carpet set where the PO used a $10.00 can of glue on the "hump", I would only advise to use glue here if you NEVER plan to remove the carpet again or you really like

"Jute" is the non-foam pad crap <g>. It leaves a stringy, fibrous residue. Foam leaves, well, a foamy (?) residue... you know what I mean. Either way, it's a PITA -- and either kind soaks up water an
