95 Metro Carpet

[bbroski]

I have 95 Metro 3cyl 1.0 and I have a leak somewhere under my carpet and it smells. So I wanted to order some new carpet for it but can only find carpet for up to a 94. Does anyone know if the 94 carpet would fit in a 95?? or have a part list for a 94 carpet is they even have a part list for that??? Any Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What about fixing the leak first? Is your heater core leaking?

Try the auto carpet from Lowes home improvement.
Use a heat gun to mold it in place.

I would have never, ever thought of this. How well does this work? Details on the procedure and heat levels? Any caveats?

Yea, thats what I want to do, last night I stripped the inside, all I have is the drivers seat in there. I found the leak, the front of the wheel wells are all rusted, and on the drivers side wheel well I have a nice size hole. Any one ever fix this problem?? and how?? As for the carpet it's pretty well ruined.

I spent about a year restoring my mom's '73 Monte Carlo- she had a bunch of rust from trailering a boat. I had to rebuild a few sections of her quarter panels and used a combination of metal window screen (easy to shape and have it retain its shape), fiberglass and Bondo. Worked great.

I want more details on the carpet heat-gun thing!
