Faded Carpet Options?
To remove the seats drive up a curb remove one seat then switch sides and drive up the curb again.
that way you don't need to jack up the car at all at only 1 tire of the car is not level to the ground
dying carpet wont last long enough i mean for 5 bucks its cool but it gets annoying after less than 2 years and your carpet is fading again.

Yea and its not that hard to fit back in. I had to remove my seats and refit the carpet like 3 times in a week (insulation install, redye carpet, stereo wiring) and it was definitely one of the least stressful things i have done with the car
I've done it on several cars in the past. It's mostly time consuming
for the amateur, taking off all the pieces. With a console it's harder. It gets tricky and the fumes are stinky if you want it glued down for the professional look. With that 3M contact adhesive spray, it sure looks good. That was when I had more time than money, now it's the reverse, so I bought the carpet on-line and paid a pro to do it right (I think labor was around $200).
I've also done the carpet dye, JC Whitney has it. It works fine for small areas but forget it for the
big jobs. Might as well just replace the carpet. It stiffens the carpet too.
