Gridgway Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Not sure if this is a techie question, but I need new footwell carpets and a new boot carpet for my live axle crossflow. Any suggestions as to who might do these? I assume Caterham themselves are unlikely to have stock!cheersGraham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Area Representative Golf Juliet Tango Posted September 6, 2021 Area Representative Share Posted September 6, 2021 I recommend rubber mats for the footwells. Standard S3 size.Woolies for trim for a bit of carpet https://www.woolies-trim.co.uk/product/search?term=Carpet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 these are great for lining the back panel (with spray tack) and the boot floor to as they are slightly tacky similar to mats you use as tool box linershttps://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/263375602558?var=562387577908Rubber footwell mats are very heavy, if you need a little non slip consider using skateboard tape in the appropriate places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 I'm inclined to remake the original mats with new carpet from Woolies (thanks for the link) as the rubber heel pads are fine. Then I can make a new boot carpet at the same time. I think the Woolies budget carpet is probably right rather than the full-on wool one though.Now all I need is the use of an industrial sewing machine for a day. Well to be precise, the use of one for my wife for a day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 Just to update. I've ordered carpet and binding from Woolies and a friend who is a trimmer says I can go and sew on his sewing machine. So I will remake using the originals as templates. I also found that Oxted can do mats as well at probably not too dissimilar a price. But where's the fun in that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
