Hello all, do they make the rubber floor mats that were original to 230 SL??

Any suppliers for this item.
Thanks all, and thanks Arthur for telling me to look here.

The original rubber mats were color coded to the carpet.  Brown carpet = brown mats.  Also, the rubber above the door sill matched the color of the floor mats.  I believe the only color available now is dark gray (black?).  Let us know if you find colors available.

 That is close , but there were only 4 mat colors.
Brown-6450
Blue-6317
Mid Grey-6135
Anthracite-6131
  So, that only works  on Trim Codes where the carpet was Blue, Brown, or Gray, in which case that would be the mat color .  All other carpet colors would be with the Anthracite mats.
 As a Trim code of 117 , which would be A Red carpet w/Antracite mat , etc.
 But a Trim code of 123 would have a Blue carpet w/Blue 6317 mat, etc.
 The Anthracite is the only available color now that I know of.
