    Vinyl Cockpit Rear Wall

    Looking for photos of rear cockpit walls with vinyl instead of the carpet. Details on how it was installed, where were seams, where were breaks between vinyl and carpet, etc.

    Tried the usual suspects for build threads with no luck - but I sure assume there are some out there.

    Thanks
    Greg

    Not directly on point and photographing black is nearly impossible, but if i recall correctly, the Roadster has a similar vertical/horizontal break on the back wall at some point. On the 818, I ran Vinyl on the upper portion until the first hard break. The thickness of the carpet made it easy to run up against each other at an inside corner. If I were to do it again, I would probably run the vinyl down even further for a more OEM/production look (you rarely see carpet on vertical surfaces higher than your knees in a production car).
