    Anyone know if the carpet from a 69 stang would fit in a Maverick? I came across a guy that has carpet for $70, and if it'll fit half way decent, I'll use it, if it's completely different, well, back to the drawing board :huh:

    really, I thought they were something like 120 plus shipping, If I could get the right thing, then yeah, I'll go that route

    I seriously doubt it will fit very good. Most mustang transmission tunnels are bigger than ours

    If your handy have you thought about making your own custom fit carpet? I'm not the most handy one and i just put one in the mav to cover up rusty boards and it didn't fit to bad. If ya know what your doing it could look pretty good :)

    what kind of carpet did you get? I was wondering if there is a roll of carpe that you can lay down in a car, heat it with a heat gun to make it fit the contours, and then trim it and be done. Guess I'll pass on the mustang carpet
