Title: Looking for some decent mats
Post by: ams_sxi on October 26, 2011, 09:17:56 am: Looking to buy some good car mats cant afford the orignal ones, so wanted to see what you guys are using.

Anyone know where to get some decent ones?

Mine were just listed as mats, so enquired if they had a part number which the seller hadnt mentioned - and voila - half the price from a dealer and brand spanking. :happy2:

Thanks for thinking of me,
Though already offered my set, not interested due to the metal plate.
(though to be honest foot doesn't slip at all as it has the carpet coming through the holes.)

Used these guys often. It's actually Hayselden VW Barnsley. They do OEM mats in pairs, so you don't need to buy all 4 if you don't need. I've a full set of OEM carpet mats, but got a front pair of OEM rubber ones from these folk for winter. Ideal :happy2:

Post by: LouCyffer on October 29, 2011, 09:07:27 am: Hated them at first, Mike. Once you've seen the amount of muck they gather, though.... Plus you can just pull them out of the footwells & hose them off. Better than 1001 carpet cleaner and scrubbing :happy2:
