Kevin Tetz leads you through the step-by-step installation of Molded Carpet from LMC Truck. This DIY carpet installation makes it easy to make your truck's interior look new, and if you take the extra steps to upgrade your sound and heat insulation as Kevin shows you, you’ll also have a quieter and more comfortable cab when you’re all done.
If you’re going through the trouble of replacing the interior carpet in your truck, there’s no better time to replace the factory sound deadening with a long-term solution that’s more effective, and the addition of heat insulation as shown in the video does a great job of helping to maintain consistent temperature in your truck’s cab. The molded carpet is available in various colors to match or change your current interior, and because it’s pre-cut and molded to your exact truck, the fit is excellent.
The removal and installation takes a bit of time but is fairly straightforward work, though Kevin shows you plenty of great tips and tricks to make the job even easier. This how-to guide is based on a 1981-1987 Chevy/GMC, but it should help with similar molded carpet and sound deadener/heat shield installations on other Chevy, GMC, Ford and Dodge trucks.

Just found out about this page and just bought my grandpas 1983 Chevy 6.2 diesel it’s been sitting for about 10 years and transmission is messed up but can’t wait to fully get it restored love this page and how toos 💯
Hope this project is going well! So many old trucks that get bought as a project after sitting for years wind up just sitting again and continue to rust away!
We gotta keep these old trucks/cars going otherwise they will turn into scrap or another rust bucket!!!
-1987 f150 straight 6 single cab-
Their viewership has definitely increased with Kevin hosting the videos. Thanks LMC! Nice job Kevin!!
Kevin needs a Raise
Nice job on the sound barrier and carpet installation 👍🏼👍🏼
Always like watching Kevin's instructional videos, just the time this video will save you finding all the screw holes is well worth it.
There's an easy way to do the bolt holes. Put the bolts in before you put anything on the floor. Then as you're laying the deadener/carpet in, push it down over the bolt head and cut it. It's a bit of an extra step, but it saves time hunting around for the right spot.
I love the sound of the screw head stripping when someone installs interior screws with a cordless drill...
Robert Craft cordless drills are way better
That would be an impact driver. Not screw heads stripping.
16x9" speakers would be cool
I prefer 14x10 myself 🤣
Installation Question: Purchased 3 items - 1) EVA Sound Deadener Kit, 2) Heat Shield Kit, 3) Industrial Polyvinyl Floor Mats. Does the tar like item go down 1st? Then the fiberous material with foil side up second? Obviously, last would be the Floor Mats.
Thanks, Kevin T.
You always make stuff look easy. I just hope that mine turns out as good as yours looks.
Nice job. This guys is the hardest working guy I've seen in a long time. Now I know why you hire somone else to do the interior. To much pain in the neck for an amateur
I wish Kevin Tetz would start working on trucks on a free online show again.
It seems to fit a lot better when i turned it around the other way,u sure thats the right way you have it
i really like watching this type of videos from lmc truck
Nathan Bennett yeah
Such a great video! Really helpful to see the products you sell in real life applications!
Don't like the mismatch
Really cool I'm eyeing a 76 thinking of a an affordable restoration flip good video
You give the best instructual videos, but you neglected to mention that the custom deluxe, other wise known as the base model, doesn't come with kick panels. I almost drove myself crazy and wasted 1/2 a day on the internet trying to figure out why I would have to spend $80 to $100 to put carpet back in my truck like you did. Until I found a guy putting carpet in his shop truck
A custom deluxe without kick panels. Please remember those of us with base models in your awesome videos. Thanks.
Great episode. Do have videos on a 1955 ford f100 interior installation
LMC videos are so much better than the brothers ones.
Don’t let Brothers hear ya
No glue or anything for the carpet? How does it stay in place?
IDK where he got that truck with showroom quality floors but damn I'm jealous lol!
For reals.!! Thats some clean ass interior !!
Love watching Kevin
Anyone know a video covering a K2500 with automatic ? how do you r&r the selector box on the floorboard?
Do you have a video on removing the 4x4 shift console?
I restored my 87 with all LMC parts everything was good but when it came time for the door panels they just didn't cut it. Rubber was just to flimsy got ones in eBay that are super nice. no hate just a little advice.
Manuel i need the link were you buy your door panels
Interesting you didn't say any prices for those parts.... Looking Nice...!!
You should do some vids on gmc jimmy.
Must be expensive 😂
Have a 1997 chevy 2500 truck that I'm restoring. Orderd all the parts from lmc truck.
On my dash it says : no airbags we die like real men..😁
This job is a gd nightmare. The padding doesn’t conform to the contours of the floorboard and getting the bench seat bolts back in is next to impossible. I put down asphalt sound deadening, jute and the carpet. They don’t tell you the carpet includes jute so now the bolts are too short. It is also a nightmare getting the bolts through the insulation.
Is the carpet all precut per cab/truck model?
What is the name of the insulation that you used for the second layer? Thanks
Thanks for the video. I am installing into a 96 F250 std cab. My carpet is about 18-20" long from front to back. Is this normal? I have rechecked part numbers and the ordered number is correct. Are these trim to fit to that degree. Your's is almost perfect size.
Never seen thread locker in a thick paste like that.. I WANT o.0
Nice work 😊
I have a question thats got nothing to do with this video, I have a 82 C10. I had a 350 with 425 hp it has a holley 750 dp turbo 350 trans , I do t feel like iam getting all the hp out of the motor, I haven't done anything with the rear-end , just feel like I should be getting more out of it , any suggestions?
What size are those seat belt anchor bolts?
Thanks
Great video Kevin I learn a lot from it thanks again
Great video
Do you have paper catalogs or is it all on line?
For a 1967 Chevy C20 longbed stepside..
Yes, you can request for a paper catalog be to be mailed out to you at www.lmctruck.com
How do you keep the carpet from sliding around? The old carpet had really thick padding glued to it that made it stay in place
How about some part numbers?
I have an 83 c15.
Thanks great video! I'm placing carpet in a 97 2 door Tahoe I want to do it myself and I will definitely be coming back watching this again
2 door Tahoe....? Excueezy me?
@@SquarebodyLife183 dude you have never seen a 2 door tahoe? If not Google it...
@@MrFameone206 no I haven’t but I searched it after 😂 btw I wasn’t being rude I was confused lol
@@SquarebodyLife183 I wasn't trying to be rude... they made from from 92 known as the full size blazer moved them over to the Tahoe badge in 94 stop making them in 99. I traded mine with 275k for a 02 silverado with 92k on it. And I miss it.
@@MrFameone206 dang. It looks like a cool car tho. I’ve always been a fan of Chevy. In fact, I’ve got a 1986 Chevy c20 Silverado and I’ve been slowly working on it. Hopefully I can get it running for when I’m 15
Ya mine didn’t come with pre stamped bolt spots
Super helpful, thank you.
Where can I get that kind of material for my 79 Pickup
Gotta say was a little disappointed last week, when I called LMC CS for advise on carpet options, didn’t feel comfortable ordering.
What sound mats did he put down first and second?
I’m trying to find the vinyl flooring for the crew cab, I can’t seem to find anything on the internet.
What is the torque spec on then seat belt bolts you said something about safety?
i see no catalogs for ist gen dakota i own a 1995 3.9 slt extra cab
What if it's a stick shift?
awesome video... Thanks for the help!!!
I got 59 chevy apache howmuch heat shield insulation do I need to buy? Please anybody
Good Job hermano..!
Exelnte
This seat belt warning buzzer gets disconnected and then never reconnected ever again
It's really cool to see this full process ... thanks for the video!
So the carpet doesn’t get glued to the heat shield?
👍
Anyone know what insulation products he used from lmc.com??
Seatbelt warning buzzer gets cutt off and disconnected
Looks good
You're gonna snap off at least two of the seat bolts. How do I know this.
hudsonhawk 001 I did that today haha went 2 for 2
@@Yardbuiltracing Yeah, it all comes apart so easy with this guy. Up here in the northeast, you start every square body project with a box of band aids, a bottle of Jack Daniel's and the infamous death wheels. Lol
Do you guys do repairs like this over there? Like, if i were to bring my truck to ur location, could u guys re-do my interior. my floor pan and carpet?
Sorry sir but we do not.

I need a new dash. Mine is all cracked. Where can i order? Plus im looking for a color change as well.

LMC is the best place
I' net a carpet from my C10 1965
did it bother anyone else when he started to reattach the panels with a drill and was rounding the heads off the screws lol I think a screw driver would of been the proper tool for this application.
lol 16x9 speakers @2:10
What happened a 8:08? LOL "Threre it is!"
My truck did the same thing. If I didn't manually feed the belt back in, it would always just chill and bang and clang around. I made a point to tell passengers about it and they would still close the door on the seatbeat buckle.
What about 1990's Silverado 1500 do this still applies or do they have a catalog.
I'm not totally sure what you're asking? I was talking about what the belt did at 8:08. The feed things sometimes doesn't feed. I don't know the words for it as I haven't thought about it for awhile. But some people get into vehicles and just slam their doors and if the feed does that the seat belt can get caught between the door and its final seated position. It can damage the seatbelt buckle, the metal frame spot next to the door jam. But I mostly told them about it so if they slammed the door it wouldn't make the fucking God awful clack that it makes when you do it. I can feel it in my teeth and it pisses me off.
2:10 16x9 speakers??!? HD speakers in the old truck!! 4x10 is more like it.
yall dont have any thing for a 1995 f150 xlt ext cab
Kevin what is the part number for the insulation
Hi Isaac! Whats the year, make and model of your truck?
LMCTruck 72 chevy c10 truck
The quality of that carpet leaves a lot to be desired, looks very cheap and nasty.
A lot of us disagree
Hey what was the second insulation called
Marcos Barraza
Troubleshoot electrical blinkers GMC 83
Damn after this truck gets done it's going to have costed 20k in parts alone...
I was only going to rebuild the engine. I'm now 7k into restoring what was supposed to be a work truck.
