Replacing floor covering.
Pretty disappointed that the offerings seem to be one company, ACC. Anyway my work truck has the vinyl floor and was wondering if anybody replaced carpet with molded vinyl how was the fit and the finish. My gray carpet was pulled and power washed and am hoping to get a few more years out of the passenger area- but it's in pretty bad shape in the '90 4runner. The cargo area will probably be redone with rubber box liner.

I replaced the vinyl in my 85 pickup with vinyl from ACC. First ordered off ebay and the fit was no good. When I ordered direct from ACC I'd say the fit was right on. Leave it in the sun to heat up before install.

What was the problem? Second time around for you or seconds sold elsewhere, wrong application? My options are limited and Rock Auto is where I have to buy. Shipping to me is killer.

I searched for hours trying to find something that wasn’t acc because I did not like how their stuff fit my 69 f250 at all but I never found anything so I went with acc but through rock auto because shipping was a lot cheaper that way and it actually fit pretty decent I did have to hit it with a heat gun in a few places but I was able to get it to go where I wanted the only problem I had was where I trimmed too much off the flooring and I broke the clips off of the stupid fake pedal thing so I had to jb weld it on which I thought about cutting the studs off of the floor and not even putting back but I already cut holes for the studs

I'm also very interested in how you make out with this. I have mats covering most of the bad spots but, I'd like to have it looking better. It looks more pink than the original red, I'd also like the sound proofing it would give me in the cargo area. I'm willing to pay the $700 for all new carpeting, but not if I have to cut and trim it. For the money they're asking, it needs to be like an OEM fit.

Unfortunately there are few options, i just got the front piece, the cargo cleaned up not bad and will be covered anyway with a rubber mat. These trucks are old and rare that there is no used option for mine. Yes i did choke on the price- shipping killed the deal. I guess knowing the options acc doesn’t need to make an effort finishing them off.

I believe ACC is the only manufacturer- everyone sources from them regardless. I did order mine from Rockauto. Beware the colours presented online- they aren't accurate but in my case gray has a wide latitude.

oh gotcha, yeah I figure I have some latitude with my sh!+ brown as well

Finally getting this thing together.......after 1.5 years of being apart- fun times. My biggest piece of advice, get some samples sent out- the online pics don't represent the colours well.
