Ended up going to a local shop that does upholstery work on boats, hot rods, etc. He had about a half dozen catalogs of marine carpet...found exactly what I wanted, no shipping.
As for getting the old carpet out, I'm the wrong guy to ask. I used a circular saw and took the floor with it.

The place is called Stitches. It's on 9 in Tuckerton, I believe, or it might still be West Creek there. Right next to the State Police.
I can't tell you anything good or bad about their work, as I haven't used them for anything other than a quick patch on the trunk liner of my Porsche.
You might want to try a search on the board. For some reason, I think someone may have posted something about a bad experience a while back. Not positive on that though.
