First thought on the carpet, call Doug Pollock, the owner of
SMS, and speak to him personally. If it's not right you shouldn't have to
deal with it.
Second first thought, is it possible that you have too much
padding under the carpet on the transmission hump? A little extra there
will make a big difference on the fit.

Yorker Interior Door Handle/Window Crank Removal
Thanks John, Roger and Richard for
your help! From pictures and dimensions John sent to me, I made a tool
out of a plastic putty knife to remove the door handles. It was still
challenging, but I was able to get them all removed so that I can have the
fabric replaced on the door panels.
I got the fabric and carpet from
SMS Auto Fabrics in Oregon. The fabric was very expensive
and some was soiled (the upholsterer was able to get the stains out) but the
front carpet set didn?t fit well at all. It is too short on the sides up
against the kick panels (about ¾? on each side). Does anyone have any
suggestions for filling this gap?
Thanks again for all of your
help!
Regards,
Eric
