Hi,

I am about to install carpet and put the seats back in my '56 Parklane. I bought a pre fitted carpet from SMS. I don't think the car had carpet before.

Any tricks or tips for a smooth installation? Do the seats mount through the carpet, or will I be cutting the carpet away from the mounting pads? I'm not even sure if the bolts would be long enough to go through the carpet. Thanks for any advice.

Mike

It's been my experience that the seat went on top of the carpet.  I can't say for sure on your car.

Parklane's had carpet from the factory, and seat was bolted in on top of carpet.
