Carpet Installation
We purchased a carpet installation kit from Autobahn Interiors of San Diego, CA. After speaking with a couple other 356ers who had installed their kit and further conversations with Tony, I was convinced of their quality. We went with an oatmeal German sqareweave with tan binding.
The kit was well cut and we had plenty of excess material for custom fitting. Tony was very helpful during the installation and was quick to answer any questions we might have had. We found that we had a missing piece and Tony was quick to send the replacement with no trouble. I would highly recommend this company should you want to install your own carpet.
Not too many tricks to suggest. Read the registry tech references and you will be ready to do it yourself. This is a 2-man project so be sure to have a good helper as I did.

500 Miles
Wow, has it really been that long since an update? So far, we have put 500 miles on Annie just driving around the county. We hope to venture further soon. Between a new job and a baby on the way there has not been much time.
We did install carpet and light relays so I'll post that in the coming days.
