    I bought my TMI kit from you guys. Worked out well!

    Nice instructional video. It was a big help. I used the same TMI Premium Kit, one step at a time. Used tar board, padding and carpet. It looks good and the floor is pretty well sound proofed. Now to find a good video on carpeting behind the rear sear. It's a '69 Sedan, but what I'm tearing out seems to be original square weave carpet and not a replacement as Id assumed.

    My heater channels don't have a lip. I had to order some from one of your competitors. I have to weld them on. It looks like the open part of the lip faces OUT, is that correct? Thanks for the video, very helpful, as always.

    • @Sam_Mebane

      That depends on the year of the car. For 1968 and earlier models the open edge faces in, for 1969 and later models it faces out.

      Thanks Sam! I have a 71 so that's a go!

    Does the padding come with it? I am putting sound deadening material down...should I put this padding on top?

    • @Sam_Mebane
      @Sam_Mebane Год назад +1

      Padding does not come with carpet. Padding is recommended but not essential.

    Do you have a link to the carpet you installed after you installed all the carpet

    • @Sam_Mebane

      If you are referring to the floor mats, yes, they are linked in the "SHOW MORE" above, and here if it's easier - www.jbugs.com/product/34-M1021-COLOR.html

      Laguna Seca Blue (a BMW M3 color)

    Should I sound proof area around heater channel??

    • @Sam_Mebane
      @Sam_Mebane 3 года назад +1

      We didn't install HushMat on the heater channels, but you can if you'd like.

    Do you have to remove the shifter ?

    • @michaelrobinson1945
      @michaelrobinson1945 3 года назад +1

      Yep! I suppose you COULD do it with the shifter in place, but it would look really crappy. I was worried about that, too. And it did take multiple attempts to adjust it correctly, but it worked out. Every time we successfully do something we've never done before, we gain experience.

    • @Sam_Mebane
      @Sam_Mebane 3 года назад +1

      Ideally, yes. There are only 2 bolts, it isn't that difficult.

    Thanks for this video, great job.
    Q, do you sell the carpet padding ? I’m looking for something similar for the roof of my headliner for my 63’

    • @Senor-Azul

      They sell the carpet padding and offer alternatives like heat shield or hush mat.

      They sell full rolls of jute pad at lowes for a decent price. Here is a link.

      Just finished up my 71 super and this stuff worked great for me.

    Is that loctite spray?

    • @Sam_Mebane
      @Sam_Mebane 3 года назад +1

      No, it's a different brand we sell - www.jbugs.com/product/Sprayglue-GH.html. Any fabric to metal spray adhesive will work though.

    How many cans of glue did you go through?

    • @Sam_Mebane
      @Sam_Mebane 3 года назад +2

      For the front carpet kit, I believe it was 2 or 3 cans.
