Home improvement stores sell black outdoor carpet that might work. Also if you have a farm supply store in you area they usually sell this thick black rubber mat material by the foot...

Check out junk yards, I've found thick rubber bed mats out of pickups. The tops are usally scuffed up, but the under side that mates to the bed still look great. Just flip it over and cut to fit.

someone on this forum used flooring blocks that push together like puzzle pieces and they were able to cut them to shape the interior.

Lloyd makes some really nice mats but they don't work with the seats very well. I bought one to return it because it would not allow the rear seat to latch. Since your taking it out they might be worth the money for you. Really nice mats. Just depends on what your looking for.

This might be a good option for you and your dog.

I got it from a local farm store.

Our hairy husky lab mix checking the mat out.



This gives you an idea of the thickness.



We decided to make it two peices so we can flip the forward peice back when the seats are up. The mat is pretty heavy but flipping it is doable and easier if you have someone to help you.





AZToad, I can totally sympathize. Our dog's hair is so annoying, but we've just come to accept it and try to keep up with it. I refuse to ban her from the JK but I've spent hours trying to get all her hair out. Thanks everyone for the suggestions, I'll try them out.
