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 :lol:

Basically a cheap foamback cord, without any backing.

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