When I first restored my TR3 in 2004, I went with the carpet set, but found it got soaked and was a pain to take out, dry, and put back in. Next I went with the rubber mat as original. I was happy enough with that, except the heel section was thin and wore through in just two or three seasons of daily driving...'course I wore hard soled dress shoes. So now I have a compromise. I shopped at Home Depot for flat quality mat and cut it to size using the original rubber mat as a template. Then I put carpet on top of that. I definitely don't have anything that runs underneath the seats.<br></p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><br></p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><br></p><blockquote type="cite">On March 8, 2018 at 3:38 PM Chris Simo <ccsimonsen@gmail.com> wrote:<br><br><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div>I'm finally getting to my TR2 interior and am trying to go as original as practical.
