Default where to buy OEM quality carpet

Looking to take the rubber floor out and put carpet in. Where is a good place to buy new or good used OEM/OEM quality carpet for a decent price?

looks like they want $160 plus shipping. I kinda want to keep it as cheap as i can. Id like to find some used OEM carpet out of a wrecked truck thats in good shape and cheap. I wonder if there is someone that would want to trade? doubt it but might be worth a thread.

you could try junkyards. but the likely hood of finding it in decent shape, is pretty slim. your other option is a auto upholstery shop, the way the economy is they are probably really slow, they might make you a deal.

yeah called a few junkyards. One place had two; one he said has been rained on/weathered due to busted windows that i could have if i pulled it. Then he has some in perfect shape out of a 07 (classic and $75) that im thinking of getting and cutting it to fit a standard cab.

I've been looking to buy a new truck and found some decent ones with enough options for me... but they have rubber floors
I was wondering how hard/expensive it would be to do the swap so keep us posted on how it turns out.
