Sent them back because their "best fit" model dosen't come close. I has to be trimmed and then you loose the containment property of the mat. Bus Depot said they have some with a "cheesy" graphic, yellow I think. Otherwise, it's carpet mats, make your own or keep trashing the original carpet like I'm doing. Let us know if you turn up another option. -- Regards, David Bogle Brooklyn '87 Syncro Westfalia |
