Hell, I just hope to get it in straight and eventually find the holes for the seat belts.

👍on the ACC two piece.

Probably one of the easier tasks. Leave all the bolts in for reference. White marker and a solder iron. Heavy duty shop scissors and razor blades. Weights. there are some good write ups on the site. "Carpet installation"

Scrutinizing eyes will note the autometer fuel gauge(the old SW never worked right, discovered wrong ohm, dealer screw up) and the 69 shifter boot,,I just like the look. The vintage Hurst us getting shelved.

Use your old carpet to get in the ball park for measurement.
 Can always trim off,,can't add. Cook inspires me to post,,lol!
