Carpet in '95 2-door
The carpet in my '95 2-door is looking pretty sad. Does anyone sell a decent carpet kit? I tried Gino's, but couldn't find anything.

I did not use this carpet, but I have ordered a lot of things from LMC trucks.

Maybe you find something there?

I took the seats out of mine, pulled the carpet and pressure washed it, an let it hang to dry for the summer. Drove it around with bare metal (noisy) floor.
I wished I had bought a carpet kit when they were still available at Dodge.

A 2nd vote for LMC. Used to live near their headquarters and have met a few of their folks. Very nice folks to work with.
Purchased a lot of goods through them - both over the counter as well as on-line and never been let down yet.

NO, the LMC carpet is not a good choice. LMC advertises the carpet for the 1994 thru 2001 Dodge as, "MOLDED CARPET. LOOKS AND FITS LIKE THE ORIGINAL." That is complete horse puckey. What I got from LMC was just a flat piece of carpet with a little bit of padding under the front 30% of the piece, and a heel protector heat-welded onto the carpet. It wasn't molded at all, and it needed substantial trimming at the front and also sides.
The original Dodge carpet is amazing. There is a 1/8th inch, black, rubber under layment under the entire OEM carpet, and real padding under all of the carpet, plus the carpet itself is thicker. To compensate, I bought some adhesive-backed "Freeze King" insulation from the local lumber co., and laid it down all over the floor before I put the LMC carpet down. IF at all possible, save you original carpet, or save the black rubber underlayment and real the padding, and install a new carpet over that.
