I can do carpets, front, back and boot lining as well as sound deadening for say £25? no idea on weight (it isn\'t the lightest stuff though) Front carpet has one v small cut where I had to get it round the centre console over the transmission tunnel - I suspect you\'ll find it handy for getting the carpet back in! The cut is at the back of the console not visiable

how long can you hold em for? cos i might have them off you.

i got my welder of Ebay - £66 bargaintastic

although i bought it AFTER i spent 7 weeks welding mine together

[prisspringle]

not a bad price,looks like i\'m gonna be spending about the same on a welder as i did the car  did yours come with rods? not sure what size rods to get, probbly 1.6mm and a nice low seting so i dont blow holes through the roof.

i would recommend a MIG if you are welding the car panels ( roof , floor etc... )

i got

MIG - Ebay £66
Arc - Car boot Sale - £5

only use a ARCfor THICK metal - chassis, suspension struts etc..

using a MIG is easy enough to be honest - i never welded before - and managed to get mine thru the MOT first time
