You're Gold with Legendary.That's where I got mine.
Acc wants over $200 and Yearone wants $160 Legedary website is messed up.
It all comes from ACC. personally I won't buy it from Legendary anymore, he marks it up more than the others and it takes longer to get it. Rock Auto is where I bought it last time I ordered some, much better experience for the exact same product in the exact same box.. There is one vendor that has them pack it flat instead of rolled in a box but it also costs more like $400, for the same $150 carpet... that's okay.. I have no problem laying it out flat for a while before installing to let it relax. (Every carpet I've installed got the steamer to it anyways which really helps it lay down)
Yes buying direct from ACC will cost more as well... I guess they really want you to buy from one of their vendors then they drop ship it to you.
Yep Rockauto ACC carpet $126

I just got ACC carpet for my 77 truck from Rock Auto. $126 +12.99 shipping. Next cheapest was $186 from Summit. No clue how they do it but it was genuine and drop shipped right from ACC.
All of the carpet comes from ACC now. So you can seek out the best price, but I know that carpet that is freshly molded works so much better than the carpet which has been boxed up for months sitting on the shelf. I order directly from ACC and it will be to my door within three days of ordering and it will be freshly cut and molded. It makes a huge difference when installing.

Another vote for Rock Auto. They have pissed me off in the past with other parts but they seem to a be a pretty good deal with interior parts.

I bought my ACC carpet from Classic Industries. It was the only one I could find in the color I wanted. The box had a 2011 date on it. It resembled aluminium foil being crunched up all that time in a 10"x10"x 3'6" box.

As noted on the above box, it was only two days to the time that the carpet was cut to the time that it was shipped. But it can sit for years on someone's shelf. That is why I stress to our customers to order the carpet approximately one to two weeks to actually needing it. But when purchasing from an outside vendor, it is difficult to know when it was cut and molded.

OER from Classic for both the Coronet and Duster. Both fit perfectly.

Picked out carpet and floor mats on ACCs website, went to Summit to order.
Summit was by far the least expensive, saved hundreds, free shipping.
Summit had all the options but ACCs website was more clear, so it was easier to start there to make sure I was ordering exactly what I wanted.

Think he is saying a new switch grommet was not in the box.No carpet I ever got from anywhere ever had the foot switch already cut out. Don’t set your expectations so high.
