Re: 4th gen fit third gen

here is one thread of many that talks about it. if you use the search feature, you will find a lot more:
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/inte...en-carpet.html

It's a 95% fit, requires new holes for the front seatbelt mounts and you'll probably want to cut away the extended back area that overlaps the existing 3rd gen rear cargo area carpeting. Otherwise, it fits the contours of the floorboard almost exactly.

Re: 4th gen fit third gen

yup, just did that to my car last weekend and hes 100% right. the seatbelt holes dont line up in the front and i cut off the extra in the trunk, but other than that it looks real good. i couldnt get it to quite lie flat on the passenger side but i figure floor mats will cover that when i get some. went from black to ebony and now my carpet matches my seats for a fraction of the cost of new carpet. ill post some pics sometime over the weekend =)
