I am going to buy this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/65-6...hash=item130195349088&_trksid=p3756.m20.l1116

it says convertiable is there any differance between a coupe and a convertiable?
If someone could show me a cheaper one that would help alot too.
I am looking for full Nylon unless otherwise I am told not to.

A convertible carpet will not work correctly in a coupe/fastback.

The seat pan is different (convertible goes over the driveshaft tunnel, where as the coupe does not) plus the convertible carpet takes into account the addition rocker panel bracing, which the coupe does not have.

You can get the correct carpet from NPD or any other Mustang vendor for about the same price.

Wow I just spent almost 56mins with mustangs unlimited. let me tell you, I waited 55mins just to ask a simple question on what precent the carpet is that they have.
all he said was "Yes we Do" and then hung up on me?
I guess I will take my business somewhere else.

If you want great carpet go to trimparts.com. You can choose the type of carpet loop or pile and the material. I got mine from there and it is high quality. I have heard it holds up better to UV rays as well.

there are onl a couple of actual manufacturers of molded carpets due to the expense of the molds. the most widely known one is ACC which is the one sold by practically all of the Mustang Dealers. I've been using them in a variety of vehicles for probably 25+ years.
