============== 원문 ================ <font color=\"blue\"><b>미국은 자동차 왕국이기도 하다. 미국에서는 자동차 하체 바디에 까는 카페트, 차체 4개의 도어카페트도 오래된 차에는 시중판매품을 사다가 교체한다고 한다. 미국은 세계 자동차 전시장이기도 하므로, 세계 각국의 차들이 모두 있다.</b></font> ======================================================================= 미국에서는도요타 캠리와 혼다의 시빅 차종의 카매트의 예를 든다면 이 카매트도 구입하여서 차체 바닥이 더럽거나 헤졌으면,교체한다고 한다. 그럼 외부만 새차를 만드는 것이 아니라 내부도 새차를 만드는 셈이다. 다음은 미국에서 카매트(Preformed molded carpet)를 교체하는 방법에 대해서 설명한 것이다. Installation Instructions for Preformed molded carpet for a Factory fit This page is meant for example only. A full set of installation instructions will be included with your carpet. STOP! Read Entire Instruction Sheet Before Starting! Do not cut carpet until you are sure the carpet is correct for your Vehicle! General Notes: Some late model vehicles are equipped with a catalytic converter shield on the floor. Do not remove the shield; install the carpet over it. Your new Stock Interiors molded carpet has been produced slightly oversize requiring some trimming for that perfect fit into your car. You will need a good pair of scissors and a razor knife. Use extreme caution when placing the screws through loop weave carpet, the loop tends to grip the screw and will pull out in a continuous line of tuffs. Note! Please take your TIME! Your Stock Interiors molded carpet has been custom molded to fit your vehicle. Plan to leave enough time for the disassembly of your interior, removal of the old carpet, proper installation and reassembly of your interior. Approximate time 3 Hours. <font color=\"blue\"><b>Step 1.</b></font>- Removal Remove your new Stock Interiors molded carpet from the box, unroll and lay the carpet in a warm area and allow it to settle for one to two hours before attempting to install. (This will allow the carpet to regain its molded shape.) Remove sill plates (metal strip holding carpet at threshold of the door). Be sure to keep the screws. Remove the front seats and seat tracks by removing the floor bolts in the seat tracks. Be sure to check for and disconnect any electrical connections. Remove rear seat cushions and center console if applicable. Remove seat belt bolts if they are mounted in the carpet area. It may be required to remove or loosen the kick panels and other moldings to remove the old carpet. Remove the old carpet, KEEP IT! do not discard the old carpet yet. <font color=\"blue\"><b>Step 2.</b></font>- Preparation Remove the old padding, leave the body insulation on the floor (do not remove the catalytic converter shield if the vehicle has one on the floor) Vacuum or sweep the floor, remove all loose matter Place the old carpet over your new Stock Interiors molded carpet. Mark any holes or additional cutout on the carpet with chalk, Do Not Cut Yet! <font color=\"blue\"><b>Step 3.</b></font>- Installation Place your new Stock Interiors molded carpet in the vehicle by centering it on the transmission tunnel and working towards the sides. (If yours is a 2-piece carpet, install the rear first) Match the contours of the carpet with the floor; be sure the heel pad is under the area for the gas pedal. After confirming the proper fit, start the required cutouts as you fit the carpet to the vehicle. Note, it is better to start with a small slit in the carpet just large enough to fit over the object, then enlarge the opening only as much as required. Do Not Over Cut ! After the correct fit is determined, fold back a section of carpet, apply adhesive, and press back down to the floor. (Tip:Using a common automotive spray adhesive will give a smoother fit, and less likely to move over time.) Slip the carpet under the kick panels, door posts, and any valance if present, trim the excess that has been provided to allow for a perfect fit into your car. Replace back seat, kick panels, consoles, seat belts, front seats, and sill plates (caution should be taken when reapplying any screws not to catch or snag the carpet.) <font color=\"blue\"><b>CONGRATULATIONS!.</b></font> You have successfully installed another Quality Product from Stock Interiors.
