Hey all, Ive noticed Tru-Fit Carpets now do a ONE piece carpet for VB-VK http://www.tru-fitcarpets.com.au/m_carpet.htm Isnt the floor the same shape as a VL anyway? so will it fit right? will probably ring them later today anyway but just wanted to double check.. and wat is the standard carpet, Loop, Plush or super Plush?? my car is a VL Berlina http://www.tru-fitcarpets.com.au/colours-piles.htm Cheers Ben

I'm pretty sure VB-VK have a slightly different floorpan to the VL. The VL has a bump in front of/under the front passenger seat (I think this is where the Cat Converter sits under - not sure as our NZ VL's didn't have Cats).

I've been e-mailing tru-fit for a while now. Still waiting for a reply. Here's the last two e-mails I've received from them. If you find out any info about the one piece VL moulded carpet can you please inform us. Thanks Late last year Unfortunately, at the present time, we don't have a carpet available in 1 piece-blue to suit your VL. However, early next year, probably around Feb - March, we should have a 2 mtr wide blue carpet available again which will allow us to make a dark blue 1-piece carpet to suit the VL model. Regards Geoff Early this year. THE COMPANY WE WERE GETTING THE 2MT ROLLS OF CARPET HAVE GONE BANKRUPT AND WE ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE ELSE WHO MIGHT MAKE THE WIDER ROLLS REGARDS TRU-FIT CARPETS
