Carpet replacement
Getting ready to replace the carpeting in the rear cargo area of my '96. Any special tips or tricks I should be aware of? Any gluing required? Thanks!

I just did an entire carpet replacement on my '94. I'm finishing the story this week -it'll be in Auto Enthusiast Magazine.
There is a lot of detail work to keep an eye on. Don't be cheap with the replacement carpet....it'll bite you later. Don't expect everything to fit OK the first time you drop it in -you will need to do some trimming and you will have to cut holes for the targa top holder and holes where screws are going to be placed. If you have any questions shoot me a PM and all answer them, plus I have images of what was taken out and replaced.
