Hi folks,
I have a 2005 T5 Trooper, and love everything about it, except the interior carpets and panel fabrics are worn and looking a bit worse for wear.  Wondering if there are specialists who can replace it?  Maybe even in a slightly less beige colour :-)  Any tips?  Thanks.

Any good carpet fitter can fit new carpets just had mine done by my son in law who does any type of floor covering.

I cut the carpet out of my Topaz, also did with an Anniversary Clubman, bought vinyl wood effect flooring, looks cleaner / brighter and easier to clean, have mats for added warmth in the winter. Just an idea for you

Friend of mine fitted carpet tiles easy to cut and fit with no fraying, and as they say easy to replace any worn,damaged dirtied piece.

Thanks folks.  And apologies Admin for not saying hello, done now :-). 
I was wondering if there was a specialist for replacing the small areas of fabric surrounding the trim areas, rather than the floor itself (the awkward corners in the roof, over the wheels, around the kitchen trim.  It seems like a job that "van renovators" would do anyway, any recommendation?  From experience, how easy is it to take the Autosleeper plastic molded trim off and get it back on?  Thanks for any input.
