20 years from now we are still going to see renditions of that pic floating around... I think it's become a part of the car's documentation. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

PS, i can tell you how to get that mat out in 6" chunks if that helps. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

Schonyenko2...question...on the ones you have worked on was there the heavy Black tar sound dead'ner like a carpet car???? under the Mat

or just the brown 1/2" thick woolish type padding??? on the one I just pulled for Bill it had only the woolish brown stuff..and I thought while doing it this makes sense...as a car was equipped with the cheap rubber mat it only received the cheap padding to go with it...can you fill us in on what you have seen???

budnate;

I believe that the carpet and "special body and hood insulation and luggage compartment mat" all came with the Custom Interior Package. So I would expect what you found in normal. However I have not lifted the mat on my Silver nova to verify it.
