I'm curious what he did to make it work. The biggest difference between what I did and what I've read most online is the length of time the carpet was submerged. I followed the dye instructions of 30-60 minutes (I did one hour) but I've read some people leaving the carpet soaking for as much as a week.
I decided to put more trim in as a test. I don't know, maybe the two-toned look could work...
I wasn't planning on putting the side carpet pieces in but after this I think I'm going to have to. I just need to find something to do with the tops where the speakers used to be. It wouldn't be hard to just make a lid out of something but a big part of me wants to cut the sides down so the rear damping can be adjusted without any trim removal.
