Need Pic Of How Original Trunk Mat Looks Installed For P15

[47heaven]

Hey guys...would like to see how the original trunk mat looks installed in the back of a P15 Special Deluxe coupe, if anyone has one. Since they aren't manufactured anymore, would like to make my own. They sell similar rubber matting in rolls at Orchard Hardware Supply, so I can use that.

Also, does any one have any specs of the piece that goes in between the backseat and trunk? I have the cardboard material, but don't have much of the original left to make a pattern. Wasn't someone putting out replicas of that piece a while back?

Here you go. It's a D25 but the same as a P15 except for Dodge trim. Not the best shape but you get the idea.

Thanks, Robert! I can now see that it was entirely molded up and over the hump, and up along the left wheel well, which will be impossible to do, but at least it gives me a good idea of how it was and how close I can get it to look somewhat decent.

Might not be impossible. The rubber floor mats in my daily driver had a few curls in unwanted places. This occured by my draging my feet over them as I entered the car. I used a heat gun to re-shape these floor mats. You might be able to do the same Heat Gun treatment with a new trunk mat. Once the rubber conforms to the new shape hit it with a damp cloth and it will cool and stay in the new shape.

Cool! It's worth a try.
