moulded carpet should cost about 140 from rare spares
the seats should cost about 800 all up to be refoamed and retrimed.
door trims you could do your self just use some 3 ply and cover it with what ever you want (put a layer of thin foam underneath the trim for more effect.
the roof linning you could get a dress maker to make for about 50

and there you have it.

I got a quote for $300 to line the interior of my wagon in vinyl and around $150 in carpet. I ended up doing that myself and it cost me about $90 in carpet still got some left over for other jobs too. The job was a bit of a pain to do but nothing too hard and now it looks a treat. (i used felt type carpet not like what you would use on a floor hehe, you can also get velour stuff)

Door trims you can make or buy and you can buy a moulded carpet as said.

The only thing you'd want to do is get the seats retrimmed by the place, even then it will still cost a bit.
