Carpet the Trunk

[HardRockR]

Has anyone redone the trunk of they're duster. I have 15inch subs, want to enclose trunk area, just have a big square in middle where the spare is located. I want to put doors along the sides for my 3 amps. How many yards will I need? any suggestions on anything, anyone have pics.

Thanks in advance.

I carpeted a Magnum (79) truck. The big problem is getting a wide enuff rug to fit in or be forced to use 2 peices. I was lucky enuff to find a store that had a rug fit for trunk duty that had it on a 6ft wide roll. This is the tuff part.

You'll need to measure how deep the trunk is and how wide for your basic diamention, add at least 1 -1/2 foot to it since the trunk isn't flat. Better to have to much than not enuff. Over ets. the length is pennies compared to a re-purchase of more.

Jack, I use microsofts office picture manager to resize pictures. Web Large is a fine setting.

Thanks Jack, yeah if you could post some pictures that would be cool. Sure wish you had a duster so I could get some Ideas and deminsions.

I use cardboard boxes and cut them to the right dimensions, lay them in the trunk and use them as patterns for the carpet pyle material or rubber or whatever I'm using.
