yeah, spray glue, the carpet is a stretchy type of automotive carpet, available in lots of colours, headlining is in a velour type fabric, with vinyl floor

That looks great,
Where can you get the stretchy carpet??? I couldn't figure out how you got it round the corners without creases
I would love to do that to mine, it must make quite a difference to the noise?

Looks class mate. I too would like to know where you get it from - plus what adhesive did you use?
