Hey Lewy,

I do have some pics (one to the front and one to the rear). I'll post them into my page in the gallery tonight if i get the chance. I used something like 5 boot kits and I think each boot kit is about 20 sq ft. I didn't do all the floor either. I have felt matting under the 20mm flooring so didn't bother with that. Just did the floor area from behind the front seats (where the floor starts to slope up) through to and up the fire wall.

Cheers,
Garry.
