Hi All,
My carpet mats are certainly not OEM and over the time have started to perish away and now seem to leave lots of its underneath sticky deposits. Hoovering it out to clean it is not so bad but then a few days later its there again.
They are fairly ready for the bin.
I am in the market for new mats which ones do you all recommend?
How much would I expect to pay for them?
Any real difference with OEM carpet mats and other vendors?
Thanks Jon

Motormec used to do very good mats but I think they've stopped selling them since the original owner sold the business a couple of years ago.

Finding good conditioned OEM mats is like finding a one legged ballerina

lhd would be pointless unless you have a left hand drive car.
The drivers and passengers mats are completely different shapes.

That mats I think are the same irrespective of model
RHD from BMW are NLA unless we all put an order in then they will make them again. Which I can't see happening as zone ers are tight

Cabs are narrower and shorter in the rear. And there were at least two different materials used.
