Jeffrey - I'm just down the road from you! I haven't done the carpet on mine yet, but I'm assuming it goes like other cars. Take everything out. Put down some good heat shielding (especially our cars). Do a test fit of the new carpet. Getting it warm first by laying it in the sun will help a lot. If the fit is bad, then use the old carpet as a template to trim things up. Then just remember how all that stuff you took out goes back in ConfusedLOL
