    Is it possible to get new floor covering for KS4 Sambar?

    All of the carpets are discontinued. I bought literally the last one in Japan back in 2017. I tried to get another right after to keep as a spare and every single variation I could find was no longer available.

    I've been wondering the same thing. Been doing some research lately to see if there is anything out there. After watching some vids I'm not thinking I am quite up to the task of making my own :D.

    What videos are you watching that shows making your own carpet? Thanks

    Essentially what I have learned is, you can either use a thin fabric and spray glue it to the insulation, or you can go old school and make a full on fitted fabric pattern. If/when this project comes around for me I will probably go the glue to the insulation route as I think I could make it the most professional.

    You can pull the carpet completely, and paint the floor with bed liner.

    Thanks for all the videos. I might have to give this a try.

    I did that to the exposed areas of my truck along with denim heat reflective padding under the carpet and it did a ton to knock down the tinny-ness of the cabin noise.

    What is that sprayed in black? Have you got a picture of the carpet in? I like the heat reflective padding.

    They are readily available from japan.

    If you can’t read Japanese, you can use a service called buyee.jp
    You send the URL to them, they buy it for you, then re-ship from their warehouse.
    Costs a little more but this should allow you to order stuff from Japan.
