Look in the Recycler. There are a ton of companies advertising in the trailer section. Pick one up at just about every liquor store or Circle K or Arco/AM PM. They're about $1.50.

Lowes or Home Depot has them. Just don't have a heart attack when you see how much.. Not to bad considering how long they last...

I know this topic is sort of old, but for anyone else needing pre-carpeted bunks, you can get them HERE for $40.00 for a 6 foot pair.  :good
