I was vacuuming the Outback out and noticed alot of trash under the back seat. I pulled the seat and cleaned the mess. However the felt is nasty and I'd rather replace it. Can I get the right stuff at Home Depot? Thanks.

I doubt it. Have you called a dealer to see if it is something that can be ordered? I assume you are referring to the felt on the floor under the seat, correct?

Yes- the felt under the back seat bench needs replacing.

It will either be a dealer part or one from a salvage yard. I guess you could get something at Home Depot and cut it to fit.

You can use a winter insulation. They have a couple of different thicknesses. Or you can check on line for replacement floor rugs
