Riley 0 Posted April 25, 2006 today ive been on with swapping bits of my interior from grey to black. the parts are coming from a j registered 91 car into my j registered 92 car. when i came to swap the boot side carpet,the 91 ones wouldnt fit :? totally diffarent shape...so then i went and looked at the boot floors. in my 92 the boot floor is flat at the sides,but yet in the 91 its not,sorta drops down at either side :? is this part of the early/late thing? another strange one... when i was swapping the trim that runs over the doors,the trim from the 91 car has a grab handle on each side,where as my 92 only had the one on the passenger side :? wtf? also,the new (91) trim didn't have the holes punched through for the one screw that secures these trims...weird :? sorry,just thought id see what anyone else has? and now ive got a feeling im gonna struggle to find the black boot carpets to fit :( and its a fecker because ill have to remove the rear trim again just to fit it :twisted: neil.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 25, 2006 AFAIK the only differences in boot floors are spare wheel and fuel tank size related. I believe 92J G60s got the same 15 gal tank as the VR, which would result in the floor being flatter and higher up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

biggrim 0 Posted April 26, 2006 I've got a 92 J G60 with a full size spare, 12 Gallon tank, and a flat boot floor (I think). I've also got black boot carpets that don't fit and need to get some black boot carpets with the hump for the spare and not recessed at the sides.
