Default New carpet on 98?

How hard is it to replace the carpet and where could I get it from? I probably want oem and not cut it (I guess). I've taken the seats out before and scrubbed my carpet but there are still a bunch of stains..

Even oem you will have to cut bolt access and such. As for where to go, my guess would be quadratec, they had for my tj. As for difficulty, just remove stuff, the. Carpet, then reassemble, sounds like you were halfway there before.

I bought a bissel carpet stain remover, its the portable green one. Did the whole jeep last week pulled the front seats too. It seemed to do a really great job. Check walmart and target. Its $89 I think but you'll want to get the spray pre treat and an extra jug of the cleaning fluid.

Ditto on stockinteriors.com. Good quality - padding not as thick as factory but thats not a big deal. Fit is not the best in back seat area but again not that big of a problem. Front floors and rear deck fit great.

I removed and then power washed my carpets using Simple Green. I did each section 3-times. I was amazed at how claen the came. I then bought new floor mats and it looks great, and more importantly it smells great too.
