First step, apply new hoses. These are CEET hoses. Supposedly good to some sort of high temperature. Silicone. Wire wrapped. A hell of a lot nicer to deal with than the paper stuff.
Next up, I decided to try and figure out where all the carpet pieces went. Some of them are obvious...
Some of them less so. My car looked like this for at least an hour:
Once I had it all figured out, it was time to apply the adhesive:
And glue the parts down. Some relief cuts were needed. No instructions were given. I ended up cutting in the wrong place. Damnit.
After the transmission hump, I applied this "hidden" piece of fabric that's supposed to cover all the gaps:
Then the rear quarter. And yeah. It really DOES look that bad. Behind this piece of felt is a lot of juke. Any time I'd try to stretch it and smooth it out, the juke would shift and screw it up. After much time spent trying to get it perfect, I gave up and told myself, "Anything is better than what you have." I might end up re-using the factory rear quarter panels if it bugs me enough.
Flipping over to the other side, the other hidden piece...
Then the backing for the rear seats.
Then the bottom of the rear seats.
