Removing Lux Carpet/Replacing with Armorlite?

[razehound]

Looking to remove the carpet from my 4 door and put in a washout-style.

I've seen this product from Armorlite, which looks good to go, but I wanted to see if anyone here can speak to their experience with it.

Did you install yourself or have a shop do it? How long did it take? How well do the drain plugs function?

Also if anyone has any pictures of the khaki color that would be great, it seems a bit too light but you cant ever tell online.

Lastly, what do you do about the rear seatbacks/cargo floor? This replacement is only for the passenger area, the rear of the vehicle still has carpet. Can I tear that out as well, or are mats over top about as good as it gets back there?

Consider sound deadening along with Armorlite. It’s not a waterproof liner, you can’t use high volume water flow or it wil get underneath. (The OEM washout floor is no different.) There are videos on YouTube that show how to do the install. It took me two days including installing Sound Skins sound deadening. I have a OEM cargo mat on top of the carpet in the rear, that does great with a Great Dane onboard. The drain plugs work as they should. I have zero regrets, it looks fantastic. If I buy another Bronco I will do it again.

Yes I'm aware of the non-waterproof nature of these wash out floors.

Question, does having the sound deadening underneath it affect that water drainage to the passive drains? I guess Im not familiar with the material, whether it would displace water or trap it in place...
