Pleeese, where can I get some of the stuff for re-covering bits of my (vans) interior, you know like carpet without the carpet on the back

Lots of VW shows have traders selling this in all sorts of colours ...at Dubfreeze there was one but the name escapes me

dont know about the carpet but we hated it so i recovered all of ours ours with fabric from Dumelm mill.

cost under £50 to recover every internal panel and in real time only took a few hours.

hi
i got proper lining material @ vanfest cost about £25 to do the high top (still havent got around to doing it!)
make sure you buy high temp spray glue otherwise it will all fall down

the material is like a very thin version of cord carpet, if you can wat till bustypes you should get some there

the material is like a very thin version of cord carpet,

Basically a cheap foamback cord, without any backing.

Needle-punch is another option, and a good deal tougher, and no doubt more expensive
