I have really worn my carpet in my two years of use , and am looking for a replacement . Where can I find such a thing (other than going to GM Directly) ?

Carpet from the dealer is not to bad. I got ebony carpet for an 07 for 210.00 which I didn't think was to expensive. So far I haven't found it anywhere else and I don't think if anyone dose make it they will not be any cheaper. Good luck

I was actually at PepBoys today and they have a "do it yourself" carpet that wasnt expensive at all...but it was only the carpet, nothing else which might become an issue later on in the installation lol. $210 doesnt sound bad at all

The HHR has, as most cars do now, a molded carpet, the DIY kits won't fit well to the more complex floorpan shapes. I did an old Ford with a kit made of cut flat parts, it fitted well, for the most part, to a floorpan with no lumps apart from the trans tunnel, but wouldn't sit well around the front wheel well bumps and pedal area.
Probably in a few years once the HHR starts to get on in years, and carpets start to wear (mine's scuffing next to the clutch pedal already), aftermarket manufacturers will consider a mold for these, but I wouldn't try to fit flat carpet to it.

i would stay away from the diy kit. jc whitney ussually has a few carpets. i don't uderstand why there are not more aftermarket parts for the hhr since they been making them 4 years. i made a carpet for a 1969 torino , it was not easy, but it was cheap.
