Well I went to a couple of the local parts houses and finally found one that
had one hook on it. It wasn't pretty taking them out but it worked! I do
plan on buying a seal driver also. I'm not quite at the point where I need to
put those in so I'll look for one while I'm in Denver this week.
Thanks
Oh yea, carpet. Still waiting for the factory to correct the two pieces.
Apparently they did and sent them to Mark. Fortunately he checked them
before forwarding the pieces on to me. Turns out the modified the ones for
the wrong car! So they are going to redo them again. Assuming they get
these two parts modified correctly I would have to definitely give the carpet
set a thumbs up along with the service of Mark Walker at Southeastern
Fabrics. Defintely great to work with.
