FJ80 Loop Carpet

[LS1FJ40]

I have flat roll material that I can cut and you can make floor mats or rear cargo floor liner out of. It is a tough vinyl. I'd say its a few times harder than the typical vinyl mats you buy at the auto stores. @LS1FJ40 can chime in for a second opinion.

@retrofive its very tough. My only concern would be that it can be a little slick compared to a more rubbery floor mat.

Speaking of mats. @reevesci how long would it take to get the mats in we discussed? Are you still getting them?

I'm still working on the 3D mats with my Aussie vendor. Probably not until late spring early summer '17.

Ok. Sounds good.

Any idea when the vinyl will be available. I will be purchasing it for my 1996 LX450.

Thanks

I'll put this order in on the 21st and should have it late January to ship out.

Any plans for floor mats with the "Land Cruiser" wording on them - like the OEM mats that are all worn out now?

I found this thread using search, but no vendors carry them. Please advise.

@reevesci are we any closer to having the all vinyl kit available to replace my old carpet?

A couple of guys ordered the 80 vinyl kits and they are on their way from AU now. @LS1FJ40 got the first test kit last year and he and I are happy with it. I'll let you know when I plan on making another order.

I usually air freight my carpet orders, but the next one I plan to sea freight so the prices will be a little less than before.

Do it @baldilocks. One of my favorite mods for many reasons. First, it makes it feel how it should fee, utilitarian. It just makes sense. Second, it got rid of the horrible smell. No amount of cleaning will ever get rid of 25 year old stench. Third, it looks good. Clean and functional.

What sort of backing does the kit have?

No backing. You put down Thermozite first then put the vinyl over it. It's really fairly simple. A couple of things to remember. A) allow enough time to vacuum up the 20+ years of crap under your existing carpet. B) Best installed when it is warm. Let it sit in the sun so it's nice and flexible.

DO NOT USE YOUR CARPET AS A TEMPLATE!

@reevesci I checked your site and I don’t see your carpet or vinyl kits for the 80 series. Are you still supplying these? If so, how much and what is the lead time? Looking for brown carpet for an LX450 and maybe vinyl for a 1996 Toyota 80. What color vinyl is available?

The company I am using bought another company in Queensland and moved their operations there. They are WAY behind and I'm not sure when I'll order from them again.

Bummer. Thanks for the reply.

@TRAIL TAILOR I take it there are no plans to stock the 80 series carpet kits again? Been looking high and low for a good loop carpet and my search has brought me to this thread.

I don't import the flooring anymore.
