    Default Boot carpet in Calais?

    Just wondering if the Calais had boot carpet on the inside boot lid on the top and back?

    If so, in the future I'll be looking for some crappy ruined pieces to use as templates with the rest of the standard boot carpet, as I can get hold of unlimited rolls of car carpet for factory direct prices ie. sweet fa and may make some boot carpet kits for sale, depending on how my own goes after lots of practice attempts lol.

    Also, Im guessing if the stato's had them they would be different cause of the different back end?

    Cheeeers

    I have one in the Calais. They are obsolete from Holdens, so try the wreckers, your after a VR/VS Statesman/Caprice boot lid liner. Mine cost me about $60 I think?

    Looks way neater!

    Thanks NORTI

    That's pretty much what I'm after, going to have to find calais/statesman at the wreckers to find a shagged bit that I can use as a template.

    Since they are obsolete, I guess there would be people wanting these at around half the price from Holden if I can get them looking pretty much exact from factory

    Thanks, but I'm going to have a go at making one myself. Can't afford shit with the wedding atm, plus going to make copies of all the other bits of the carpet I have so it will all match the new stuff.
