If I have to go with ACC because there is not a better one, will go with it, but if there is another better or similar option, will try that With a Charger born in Chrysler assembly plant in Valencia, Venezuela

I laid it in the car before it went to the alignment shop it appeared alittle large around the 4spd hump but we will see when we actually start cutting it to fit. The carpet seems to have plenty of extra material around the edges though. I'll update after we attempt this weekend.

I rather preffer to spend $150 each 7 or 8 years which I'll have, than $400 in one transaction just for a carpet, that I don't have.

My installers also had to use some glue on the rear floor in the foot wells to get it to look decent. 2016 Diesel Ram 3500 Mason Dump 1971 Challenger 2013 Jeep Wrangler 1979 Dodge Ram Power Wagon 400 Mini Pumper My other car is a Fire Truck.

I bought an expensive set from Dante for my Barracuda fastback. The Trim Parts carpet did not fit worth a darn and I bought an ACC carpet to see if it would fit any better. It was night and day better! I couldn't give away the Trim Parts and ended up taking it to the landfill. It was a bad experience.

It's _somewhat_ correct, but the bumps for the seat belts are wrong and the back seat area did not have enough carpet behind the 'ledge' up to the seat to cover the floor, I had to graft pieces in. I had to fold the carpet over itself under the sill plates to make the seat belt area reasonable, but that leaves a fold visible. 70 Sport Fury 68 Charger 69 Coronet 72 RR

Fast forward 10 years or so, and Trim Parts was the hot ticket. Talked Dad into one for his Dart. VERY weak stitching on the heel pad! I've never used ECS's, so I can't comment. I wasn't pleased with either of the first two. Nothing to see here. Carry on.
