They were the Nylon Plush-cut Pile (p/n 78XT6127BF for $55) You can also get a rear runner which is 13x48 (p/n 78XT6733XF for $27) or you can buy the set (p/n 78XT6731AF for $80). These are advertised on page 13 of catalog 45J. You can call them at (312)431-6102. Colors available are black, brown, medium blue, dark blue, burgundy, medium gray, dark gray or medium tan.
