Default Seat back carpet

Now that I have new seats (black leather -- very nice ), I'm looking at replacing the carpet on the back of the seats. It looks to be a generic short-pile carpet I could pick up as a remnant from a carpet joint and glue on myself. Am I right about that?

If you buy a new carpet kit for 78-82, it comes with those. Same carpet pile that is on the floor. I would not use regular carpet from a carpet store. If you are not going to buy a carpet package, just go to a auto upholstery shop and I am sure that they have some around...that is what I did.

Thanks. The floor and rear compartment carpet is in much better shape than the seat back carpet. So I see no reason to replace it all.
