Carpet sets 2 and 4 door difference

#1 Post by ToledoZombie »

Hi all
What's the differences between the two door and four door carpet sets on a Toledo?
Thanks

Have a look at the parts book https://triumphtoledo.me.uk/Triumph%20T ... alogue.pdf

Page 229-231

The carpets themselves should be the same, but there's lots of differences between 2 and 4 door on other interior items such as the headlining, and items related to the doors (since the 2 door doors are longer).

There is a date related (circa 73) difference in the design of the main carpet on all Dolomite and Dolomite related carpets. But the early 3 piece design and later single piece are interchangeable. There is also a later (circa 76) date related material change (early cars are integral underlay, later cars are separate)

Apart from that, the ONLY carpet piece that varies between various Dolomite type models is the tunnel carpet.

So it almost certainly is the same carpet set in a 2 and 4 door Toledo.
