I found new carpets for my car. They came from a '96 960 and I figured that they would do well in my '90 740 GL. They are larger but cutting the excess length under the seats seems to be harmless enough. They also have much more foam on the under side. The extra foam seems to fit OK. My toughest challenge is to get the carpet back up under the console panels which extends forward and under the dash.
Can anyone advise as to how I should loosen the panels so that I can more easily slide the thicker 960 carpet up under those two panels. The only bolt I see cannot be tightened after the carpet is in place.
