I'm doing a major refresh on a 1992 245 wagon. The interior is completely stripped and I'm thinking about ordering up some replacement carpets. I'm wondering if anyone here has experience with fitting a replacement and would love to hear any thoughts/comments/suggestions.

The originals are cut in two pieces - front and rear. All of the aftermarket kits seem to be a single piece. To me, it seems like the mass of the transmission tunnel in the front would require more width of carpet than the rear and I assume that is why Volvo made the front as a separate piece. But - the replacement guys all claim that their carpets fit perfectly.

Please share if you've done this job and let me know which vendor is recommended.

Thanks in advance!

 

I have replaced carpets with junkyard ones. Depends on where you live; here in the West there is still plenty of decent used stuff. I like things OEM. Much cheaper too.

 

Post a wanted add on turbobricks.com for carpet.

That is where I got my replacement carpet for $60+shipping.

shipping will vary from $20 - $50
