Easy
It was easy for me. I had to cut a little peace for the ones in front seats. I say it took maybe 20 minutes to take them all for my 2 door.
I have been happy without carpet. So much easier to clean.

Easy as can be to take them out. Just start pulling and you'll see where you need to cut 2 little spots near the front seat posts. Its slightly louder, but SOOOO much easier to clean. Either rinse with a hose, or vacuum. This summer I'm going to get an air chisel and take the acoustic foam off my floorboards and Herculine the crap out of mine. I've heard the Herculiner or Line-X coatings make it just as quiet, if not quieter, than stock with the carpet in...

I have to admit to a bit of confusion. If you run your JK with the drain plugs out all of the time, what stops water and or dirt from coming in on your floorboards????

now sorry for the runoff... carpets were real easy to take out...i drove it stock without carpets in and not a horrible change in sound..but if you have more aggresive tires it could change for you...and as for looks i thought it was awesome...that may be only me though
