As long as your not concerned about quality. JC Whitney fits the bill for low end
It's only less expensive initially, if your keeping the car for a longer period-shop carefully..they really define "low end" on some items
.

"least inexpensive", I assume you don't mean MOST expensive. You used a double negative.

| Vwpart.net is great. I have gotten a few thing s from them and the quality is really good for a really fair price. I got carpet, headliner, seat cover and door panels. total cost like 350 with shipping.. |

Everything I have ever bought from JC Whitney has been very poor quality. Don't go cheap.

go with JBugs. They sell all you are looking for in a kit that comes with glue, hog rings, pliers, and a how to video.
Just don't get the smooth vinyl if you are still living in Austin. Too hot!!
Do you know the term "swamp ass"?
