AUTO CARPET DIRECT, LIST '62 HT
but says will not fit Conv't? Wouldn't HT carpet be wider? I used them for my '66 and I'm very pleased with their carpets.

Yes the hard top is wider in the rear seat area. You can use the hard top, but will need to use a heat gun, or hair dryer to reform the floor well depression. Also it is best to trim some of the excess carpet from each side. Start in the center and work your way out. Or open your wallet and let an upholstery shop do it.

I'd call ACC and talk to them, just because their website says hardtop only doesn't necessarily mean they don't have patterns for a convertible. If they don't, they may be able to use your existing carpet as a pattern - they did that for me and my '61 Bonneville.

CORRECTION
I know you're all set but FWIW I knew something didn't seem right with my post.
It wasn't ACD it was ACC I dealt with. Their eBay store offered the carpet set for less than their website. I requested a few samples as I didn't like the "Correct" color and they had. Customer service and delivery were flawless. Fit and Finish are perfect!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.
