Check to see if you can find someone parting one out. I just sold my midnight one for less than that auction price.

FYI, you have to remove quite a bit of stuff and it is a major PITA to remove and replace the parts.

Thanks,
Rick

Here is couple more places to shop for carpet:
http://shop.store.yahoo.com/1aauto/acc10629.html
http://shop.store.yahoo.com/floormats4less/congl194drbr.html
I am thinking to replace mine as well - it's very dirty plus i want to put soundprrofing stuff on a floor. I am wondering how much time it will take to do it.

I haven't replaced mine, but I have removed it. Like Buckshot said, it is a PITA to remove everything. Seats, center console, etc. Very time consuming.

But the link PM Summer gave will be the one that I am going to go with when I do my carpet in the spring. laugh

Figure a solid half day if you know what you're doing and do it right. Pull both front seats, center console, front cup holders. Then have to fish it out from under, around, over everything. Then reverse procedure!
