I was wandering where the carpet is supposed to be cut (at the door) , does it go up against the pinch seam at the door or over it? Looks to me that it's supposed to go against not over, pics would be great. Thanks

It is best to go over the pinch seam.Holds the carpet in place better when screwing the skuff plate down.The body shop cut mine too short and it kept pluuing away. Ended up replacing the carpet.

I can only speak of a Scamp, but when I removed the factory carpet it was over the pinch weld. I re-installed the new carpet over it as well.

one thing about cutting holes and trimming carpet. You may want to take an old soldering iron and melt all exposed edges. This will prevent cathing a thread and pulling a complete line on carpet out. Stitched edges are ok because they are adready protected. This is very important on seat bolt holes
