Need new Carpet!

I have not been able to find anything online to buy a full carpet set for my 85' 300D. I have found plenty of "carpet mats", but I need it all. Anyone have a good site for this and I will be looking for the seat pad/covers as well.

This place is pretty expensive, but they seem to have what you are looking for.

A velour (your carpet) kit will run you $600-800. There aren't any aftermarket stuff that looks the same so if you really want to keep it all original that is the only way to go. On the other hand if you don't mind cutting your carpet and doing it all yourself you can buy genuine mercedes carpet for around $80-100 a yard and you will need 4 or 5 yards. It is expensive.

The fun in this car is ME doing it, WVO, filtered, heated mods, air intake mods. Bearings, brakes, oil pan gasket, Steering box adjustment, cooling (I'm still working on that), and next will be the valve adjustment. I have no problem cutting my own carpet, and would love to have some extra for the rear window package tray area. Do you have a place that I can buy it by the yard? I need the light tan color.

Just call up some local upholstery shops as well as the dealer. They should all give you a number per yard and then go with the cheapest and do it. You can use the old carpet as templates for the new pieces. I think they used different carpet for the rear shelf and that stuff is "only" like $30 or so a yard.
