    Looks very nice !!! I have them in my truck and will NEVER go with out them. Soo easy to keep clean and all the moisture ya track in isn't soaking into your carpets. I didn't do mine, they were done when I bought my truck. Good job !!!
     
    mrbamcclain Thanks this.

    If ya go to wally world, get ya some bathroom carpets color of your choice you will have it made. The ones that go in front of a toilet fit perfect in front of each seat. One that goes in front of your shower or tub will fit between your seats. Easy cleaning, just flip one over and sweep the floors with it, shake it out and your done. When they get dirty, take'em home and throw in the washer :yes2557:

    That's exactly my plan for preserving the floor. Gonna cut out a pattern for the rubber mat under my pedals and glue felt to it so it doesn't scuff.

    I made an office chair mat out of that laminate wood flooring and the trim is what bites ya in the wallet. I had to trim all four sides.

    3 boxes total it took to do the whole floor. 8 planks per box. If I had to take a wild guess I would say if any at all, the floor weighs maybe 10 pounds more than the rubber mat floor that I took up.
    It's not heavy at all. The insulation was nothing more than cushion with aluminum foil on top
     
    RunFlat Thanks this.
