My cockpit is all bare apart from the seats, Where would I get light, fire resistant carpet from? I have made up some paper formers. I could even consider some upholstery if I knew what to use and where to get it.

Graeme,

There is a very light carpet, meant for auto interiors, that is sold in
small rolls at places like Auto Zone and other automotive suppliers. It
is pliable enough to be stretched around the contours of the center
tunnel. A little heat from a heat gun and it forms perfectly. Any good
spray adhesive will hold it in place. I would estimate all the carpet in
Baby Blue weighs less than half a kilo.

SOME not all marine carpets are a good choice also, I bought 8 metres on a
roll 8 feet wide and the whole lot weighs in at about 4kg, very hard wearing
and fire resistant, comes in a choice of colours, once cut I expect mine
will weigh in around 2kg, that's covering the front floor and sides up to
the door opening, tunnel, seat back (front top and back)
And baggage bay floor up to the fuselage join and the bulkhead apart from
the D panel

Hope this helps

Hello Graeme,

I sourced my carpet from Airtex Interiors

http://www.airtexinteriors.com/samplesCategory.php?categoryKey=carpeting

Meets FAA requirements for aircraft interiors. The carpet is plush and rather lightweight. I used it for all of the foot wells, rear baggage floor and shelf. It has held up very well these past 10+ years of service.

Good luck.
