Interior Floor Mats
« on: October 08, 2014, 14:24:29 »
Hi,
I am trying to buy good quality interior floor mats for my Left Hand Drive Auto SL280 with Air Con. (To protect the carpet)
Any ideas of anywhere in the UK or Europe ideally please? (Or the US)
Thanks so much
S.

I bought mats from cocomats earlier this year. Their website is fine and I contacted customer service a few times, by email and telephone, and I found them to be helpful and supportive. Problem is, the mats I received don't fit my car perfectly. I can't send them back and I'm not complaining, because the company cut their mats according to the required master plan of the original. Some of the information here on the Forum is inconclusive on such details and how mats were packaged originally. Just saying, be prepared for a fit that might be slightly off.

FYI - the RHD template is one I did and to make it I took brown paper and made a "mat" as  template
If you have an RHD Evoque, that's me too!

my mats couldn't fit better.  You can mail them a template if you want and they'll cut that pattern.  Mine were their stock pattern, both front mats and trunk

I would concur the majority opinion. I have cocomats in my 250 SL and 280 SL and they fit just wonderfully. I got a set for my new Mini and they slipped in as expected. Great quality and durability.
