Just for the record, Alpines never came with full carpeting... that is unless
they were GTs. All Series I and II Alpines and 3, 4, and 5 STs had rubber floor
mats from front to back. The only carpet was on the inner sills and tunnle
hump. There was also a small patch of carpet over the exposed hump under the
rear seat cushon too.
Now, on to the carpet. All the carpets are made for either SI & II's or S3, 4,
& 5. There is a difference and you will need to buy a carpet kit to fit by
Series as describe above. These kits are all multi pieces and should not be all
one piece.
I have pictures of the original rubber floor mats on my web site.

I know there are differences (1 piece versus multi-pieces) between the
carpetting used in Series I and II versus the carpets for Series III, IV and
V. Does the Series III-V style of carpetting fit the Series I and II? Has
anyone used them in this way? Are there transmission tunnel differecnces or
others that affect fit?
