Aardvark motors molded carpets are custom made to order and are nonreturnable except for manufacturing defects.
Some late model vehicles are equipped with a catalytic converter shield on the floor.
Do not remove the shield; install the carpet over it.
Your new aardvark motors molded carpet has been produced slightly oversize requiring some trimming for that perfect fit into your car.
You will need a good pair of scissors and a razor knife.
Use extreme caution when placing the screws through loop weave carpet, the loop tends to grip the screw and will pull out in a continuous line of tuffs.
Please take your time!
Your aardvark motors molded carpet has been custom molded to fit your vehicle.
Plan to leave enough time for the disassembly of your interior, removal of the old carpet, proper installation and reassembly of your interior.
Approximate total time: 3 hours.
Remove your new aardvark motors molded carpet from the box, unroll and lay the carpet in a warm area and allow it to settle for one to two hours before attempting to install.
This will allow the carpet to regain its molded shape.
Be sure to keep the screws.
Remove the front seats and seat tracks by removing the floor bolts in the seat tracks.
Be sure to check for and disconnect any electrical connections.
Remove rear seat cushions and center console if applicable.
Remove seat belt bolts if they are mounted in the carpet area.
It may be required to remove or loosen the kick panels and other moldings to remove the old carpet.
Do not discard the old carpet yet.
Remove the old padding, leave the body insulation on the floor.
Note: do not remove the catalytic converter shield if the vehicle has one on the floor.
Vacuum or sweep the floor, remove all loose matter.
Once removed, place the old carpet over your new carpet to mark cutouts.
Center folded carpet over the transmission hump just in front of the front seat.
Slowly unfold the carpet toward the front firewall.
Repeat steps 3, 4 and 5 if a second shift lever exists.
After the full installation of your carpet is complete, return to the shift levers and cut the holes larger.
Be careful not to cut the hole larger than the boot that will cover the area.
On some carpets, you will find excess material on both sides at the sill plates.
This is purposely included to provide for variations of individual installations.
If excess exists on your car, merely trim it off with scissors.
Slip end of carpet under sill plate at either side.
Caution: use extreme caution when placing the screws through loop style carpet, the loop tends to grip the screw and will pull out in a continuous line of tuffs.
Go slowly and do use a powered screwgun.
