Reviews for Husky Liners Guardian Comfort Carpeted Floor Covering Kit with Cutouts for 87-95 Jeep Wrangler YJ
Work great - easy to remove if needed look great
The "carpet" itself is a nice product. The install was fairly straight forward. It does involve removing the seats, seat belts, center console, and shifter boot, and cleaning the floor very well before install. There is some trimming needed. The hardest part is trimming around the shifter hole in the floor.
As several other reviews noted, there was not enough Velcro included. I ended up purchasing Texacro part #320284 to do the job. This is a roll of just the "hook" side of the Velcro with adhesive backing. It's also a nicer 2" width instead of the 1" width Velcro included in the kit. which did have a tenancy to peel back after a while.
This product does perform well, and looks very nice and sharp when installed properly. It gives the Jeep a "finished" look, while being a lot easier to keep clean than regular automotive carpet. The heat shielding material is nice, too. Bedrug did cut down on some of the road noise, as well. Though it is quite disappointing that Bedrug did not include enough Velcro, especially given the price. However, that's really my only complaint.
I'm mostly satisfied. I have no complaints really.
After my wife and installed ‘em we really liked ‘ em. Took us about 3-31/2 hours. I will say if you install the Velcro strips to the pieces with the peeloff backing on before installation it’s a lot easier- you just lay the pieces where they need to go, then roll back the edge and peel off the backing then press it down. That way it won’t stick in the wrong place
I could go either 3 or 4 stars for this review but I will give the benefit of the doubt here. The carpet is not actually carpet, let me explain. It is made of a foam on the bottom with a carpet-like surface which I assume is done in order to make the carpet waterproof. That being said it still looks unbelievable in the vehicle. The wheel-wells do not fit well, but fit none the less. The instructions are clear and precise cut marks are already marked out for you so that there is no guessing involved. I had a problem with my A/C unit being in the way on my passenger side carpet but some cutting was done and it fits fine now. In my opinion, still the best carpet offered but it could be better.
This carpet doesn’t fit the YJ as well as it should for the price.
The roll cage holes are off by about 2 inches.
The wheel wells are smaller than the carpet segments so the carpet doesn’t hug the corners at all.
Nice but you need about 3 times the velco provided to install it without it coming loose. Heat shields are a joke. Just a thin piece of self adhesive foil film that won't stick.
Installed on a '93 Wrangler with manual transmission.
First the bad:
Be prepared to pull a lot to get this thing to fit snug, only for it to not fit very snug. It is simply too large in areas, especially in the rear passenger foot wells and over the rear wheel wells. There are no cutouts for the rear passenger seat belts. I called customer service and they said I needed it to do it on my own, since so many people apparently move seat belts and use aftermarket solutions. What's weird about that is they provide cutout guides for the rear passenger seat brackets (which are upside down and backwards...) so I'm not sure why they decided to skip the seat belts. The roll bar cutouts are not accurate and nothing really fits totally flush against the tub in the middle since the material is fairly stiff and there isn't anything holding it down except around the edges. There is NO cutout for the transmission which is absolutely mind boggling, so be prepared to cut out your own. I botched mine in a bout of frustration and now the transmission boot doesn't cover the screw-up. The front seat bracket cut-outs are a joke, and I ended up just hacking away a bunch of material just to get everything to fit. Oh, and whatever you do, do NOT let the provided velcro straps come anywhere near the carpeted side of this stuff.....
But the good stuff:
The carpet itself is pretty soft and feels well made. It looks great and freshened up my interior quite a bit. It's extremely easy to clean, much moreso than the factory carpet. Once the seats and center console were reinstalled, it looks like a brand new Jeep.
I'm not disappointed in the purchase and would probably do it again, but my God they don't make it easy on you....
I was excited to get this product and found it to be just OK. A lot of compromises seem to be made to make it "easy to remove and reinstall." Truth is that just makes it a bunch of pieces with Velcro everywhere. It generally looks nice, it does not fit the rear fender wells well. Kind of bellowy for lack of a better term.
This was not a good fit. The precuts were not lined up right i would return if i could
