Default Rhino Lining Interior

I have been thinking of taking out my carpet and have the floor (minus the drain plugs) Rhino lined. Has anyone done this yet? If so, how much does it cost? Will the Rhino dealer take the seats and console out to apply the lining or would I have to take it before I took the Jeep in? Thanks in advance for any info you can offer.

alot of the people ive seen that have done it have taken everything out themselves to save $$, i saw a tj the other day that used the roll on liner u do your self, it looked pretty good, i like the idea of it, but i had an f250 and rhinod the bed, and it held dirt and was very hard to get off, plus id imagin u would lose alot of the insulation and it would be louder

Thanks for the quick reply and for the info. Is there something that would be better? Is that liner you saw, do you know who makes it? I don't mind dirt but I want to be able to vacuum or hose it out when needed. Thanks again.

there's a thread about someone having done this, in which they speak of how it depends on the quality of the people doing the work. sometimes they will do it without even being asked (removing of all the stuff and replacing) others will not do it, even if asked, or charge an insane amount for it.

you got to shop around to get what you want, but I'd make sure they do a quality job by asking exactly what they intend to do, and then specifying exactly what I want. assumption is the mother of all disappointments.

I had my 4 door done with linex a few weeks ago, I took everything out other than the drivers seat and they did it for $800 to give you an idea.

I love it would do it again in a second...

I don't notice it being any louder and with my dog in the back all of the time it's cleaner because I can just hose it out.

Do a search and you'll find TONS of information. Herculiner is a popular choice for do-it-yourselfers. (See "Herculiner Gotchas" thread).
