Carpet for the back

[Lee J]

So, I'll be creating a ply partition, the extra rown of seats is in, I want to carpet the ply wall. I'm sure I've seen some grey ribbed carpet, quite thin so it can be moulded etc but I can't remember where I saw it. So,

1. What carpet would you use for the ply wall and up the inside of the sliding door etc?

2. What carpet would you use for the floor of the back (the bit with the extra seats in)

Where would I get these from and what would I stick them with?

Aren't I a pest. Bet your all glad I joined now!

Exhibition carpet is another option, miles of it is usually chucked out after events (carpet, not tiles which are reused), if you are near an exhibition center, get chatting with security and ask if you can get some from the floor, the best bits are obviously in corners or edges but you can't tell where the carpet comes from once it's up.
