Subject: Salt and Pepper Carpet Kits for '73 Roundie

Wondering if anyone knows of a source of a good quality, good fitting, carpet set in the Black/White speckled pattern. I see that most places have black, grey, charcoal, but not the salt n peps.
This place has what looks to be the correct material, and there is a 14 piece kit available, as well as molded ('74-'76??) but it states it's for the "1975-1979" 2002, and there are no pictures so I don't know if it will fit.

Anyone have experience with this company?
Cheers

You know, part of the necessity of "drama and smartass remarks" is the building of community here. A community, that "ye-of-two-posts" are decidedly not yet a part of.
There's a long history here that I suppose, you are unaware of and Andy's comment referred to that.
But to push this thread in a positive direction......the unnamed Canuck in question....his name is Al.

I'm pretty sure, he sells a salt/pepper set in both wool as nylon loop.
You'll receive a plethora of opinions about him. You could use the search function to gather data and oh yeah, picked up a source for your salt/pepper question in the process.

Nope,
I screwed it down front and back and to a few glued down blocks to keep it from flexing too much.
Sound's like a good idea though.
I also cut strips of black vinal and glued them down where the pieces meet. I'm not sure how needed that is since the fit is perfect.

FAQers are generally helpful and down-to-earth. We only get feisty in carpet threads. You'll fit in fine.
