Every car is different. Some are hard and some are easy. Mine is very easy to tear it all out.

Why would you need to take the dash out to do carpet? Just tear the old stuff out and put the new stuff in. Or if you're a pioneer, you can sew/glue fabric to the old carpet and put it in for a custom look.

Need an install? Hit me up.

I was told by another del sol guy everything is simple till you have to take the dash out and thats a bitch!

taking the dash out isnt hard. im guessing ur car is a 92-95 del sol. i have a 90 civic and ive taken the dash out like 5 times, super simple,, i also got a 03 civic and its not hard either, so urs fits in the middle and it wont be hard.

my gf replaced the carpet in her jeep, i know its a totally different car but all she used was box cutters and a screw driver, remove all the trim and seats( im sure you know that)

Just buy a molded carpet kit for your car, you can get them at any upholstery supply house in pretty much any color you want. they just drop right in and your done. i did this to my old truck and it took less than 2 hours start to finish and it looked better than factory IMO and only cost me about ~$120

not to thread jack, but is there anywhere online you can get the pre-molded carpet?

the carpet in my car is shot, everything else is fine, but 2 liters of oil and a gallon of red koolaid does a number to tan carpet...

thanks, but that doesnt have my car

95 avalons are like an enigma of the car world, no wiring kits are available, speakers dont fit in stock locations without a gap or cutting, and replacement parts are next to friggin impossible to find
