Title: Floor mats
Post by: Brad on April 26, 2012, 11:31:07 PM
Hi all.
      There is a mob called Allcarpets in Melbourne that advertises original repro mats for FC's on E-Bay for $400.00.  Like T model F**ds only comes in one colour , BLACK. Has anyone here used this product and how would you rate it regarding to fit and how it looks compared to the original. I have seen some dodgy ones but the pics on his site look the goods.
      I got some years ago from Melbourne for an FB and was more than happy with them but I think it was from a different business that went bust?
      Also is there a mat behind the seat on vans as I can't remember if there was one in my van and I can't recall ever seeing one?
                   Thanks Brad.

Have to agree about Obselete rubber mats.  I used the complete set and am more than happy with them.

I recall asking the repro bloke about this, as I recolect seeing a small piece each side of the seat on an original van

When my mat arrived he had included 2 rectangle pieces one for each side of the seat, but no rear mat as such, just these which act as a sort of crude extension

Thanks for all the replies.
                                I didn't want to pay $400 bucks for a rear mat just to cut it in half.
              Thanks Gary, now that you mention it think I remember a bit of mat on both sides that gave the van a  "complete mat"  look.
              I will ask about it when I buy one .
                                 Thanks again for the swift replies Brad.
