Moss Motors carpet sets

Hi all,
I'm sprucing up the interior of my TR4 and it needs a new carpet.
Moss has a sale on theirs at the moment.
Has anyone had experience of their sets? Interested in feedback about quality and fit.
Many thanks.

I bought a Moss kit in charcoal gray loop pn 639-210 for my TR4 last year and am very happy with it. Good fit overall, biggest struggle was getting a clean laydown of the carpet on the gearbox cover. Excellent kickpanels, just need to be careful when putting it in as you have to drill in places and you don't want to catch the drill on the loop carpet (don't ask!).

I also have the Moss interior in (as original) grey in my TR4.

I went with Moss when the grey kit I got from the other big carpet vendor turned orange when exposed to a couple of years of sunshine. They were apologetic, even sent me a replacement for the worst piece (rear tunnel) but still changed color over time.

The Moss kit fit fine though some of the stitching was possibly not as neat as on the other vendor's set -- e.g. some puckering & unevenness in the edge trim on that curved bit just forward of the differential bulge.

Also, the carpeted kick panel alongside the driver's side footwell lacked a protective piece where your left foot would rub as you use the dipper. The other vendor's kit had this so I unstitched it and added it to the Moss part.

I rebiuld a lot of Healeys and since Moss started making their kits in VA. They have become the best fitting kits I have seen in over 20 years. You are going to the best source with Moss.
