Question Best rubber floor covering for 1980?

What's everyone's opinion as to the most accurate repro of the factory vinyl or rubber floor covering (regular cab, low hump, column shift). Seems like every other vendor has a generic stock photo of this part so it's tough to tell what I'd be getting exactly.

Thanks

I bought one from LMC and it was ok quality but it couldn't be altered and it was for a high hump... most are made for high humps

Re: Best rubber floor covering for 1980?

i used LMC also...the 1st one I got fit like a glove...no wrinkles or nothing...
when I did my swap I had to relocate the shifter....so I ordered another one..
this one fits and looks like crap...got a big wrinkle in it I cant get out...I even set a 30# anvil on it for about all summer ..but its still there...luckily its on the pass side so it doesn't mess with my pedals

So LMC is a crapshoot. Anyone tried one from stockinteriors.com? Looks like they sell one specifically for low hump/column shift trucks.

Re: Best rubber floor covering for 1980?

Mine came from stockinteriors.com. It is the high-hump version. Mostly it fits pretty well, but I wasn't able to get it to really lay down well over the firewall end of the hump or around the seat base. This is the best picture I have available but you can kind of see what I'm talking about. Not enough to bother me though or wish I'd gone with something else.
