I need to replace my interior carpet

I already have new carpeting waiting to go in, but this will be the most I've ever done to the car on my own, and I'm a bit nervous.

I know I have to remove:
- Driver and passenger seat
- Center console
- Door sills
- Dead pedal
- Bottom cushion of back seat

Anything else? I'd rather be prepared then have to find out the hard way that there is something I don't know how to do. If I'm going to do it tonight, I need the car back on the road tomorrow, so I want to do it right. Just how tough is this?

If your just swapping out carpet with OEM carpet it is very easy. You basically have everything on the list IIRC. I swapped mine with EVO 9 carpet and there were small diferences but nothing to fret about. Just take your time.

Now if you are talking about custom carpet. Good luck! Trimming and finding the holes are a time consuming process!

Thank you. It is stock Evo carpet, not sure if VIII or IX.

I don't suppose anyone has done a write-up with pictures?
