steven, you da man. my floor looks NOTHING like this. where you have three pieces of flooring separated by two tracks/covers, i have one single piece of flooring with the grey crosshatched vinyl. where you might have screws coming up from the bottom of the floor, i simply have boltholes plugged with VWOA's finest black plastic carriage bolt. so, this begs the question: are the tracks and covers and associated hardware available from our illustrious list vendors or (in)famous private party parts people? we are looking for them, obviously. great pics, i've bookmarked it. do my eyes deceive me, or does the white channel fit well over the vinyl thus pinning down the floor along the channel edges? thanks very much. bill |
