factory carpet pics

[jayboe]

I need some pics of the carpet, and how it attaches to the tailgate. I think i am missing some trim peices, but not sure. It is a factory carpet kit from Jeffs. Thanks

I'm sorry but I only have a question and not a nswer for you.

I am putting carpet in the back of my bronco and I bought the carpet from Jeff's. The passengers side wheel well piece fits great but the drivers side fits like crap. Is yours the same as mine or did I get a kit with 2 of the same sides?

I bought a carpet kit directly from ACC, I think that's the same
as JBG carries. the crappy fit of the wheel well pieces seems to be normal.
I had a local upholstry shop massage the pieces to improve fitment and
patch in some extra material I had to close up some gaps but it's still
a bit rough. :-(

I found this thread from a couple months back
<http://www.classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=58314>
someone posted a diagram with the factory holddown pieces.

there's three sections to the holddown on the tailgate carpet. the bottom
piece runs the full width of the tailgate (actually the holddown and carpet
stops ~1-2" in from each side of the tailgate). and the top piece is split
into two sections, one on each side of the hardtop interlock gizmo.

there's four sections to the tub carpet holddowns. two pieces
are the full width of the tub, one runs right at the very back near the
tailgate and the other just behind the front seats where the front and
rear carpet sections meet. then there's a holddown running along each
of the door sills.

by carpet do you mean the factory cork matting?
