Hi all.
My old girl is heading off for new paint next week and I'd like to shout her a nice set of new rubber floor mats to keep her lovely new paint clean and scratch free (for a while anyway).
Can someone recommend a good brand or reseller that is a good fit for our Series 1's?

many thanks
Jeff

I'd just be getting some rubber off a roll from Clarke Rubber or Bunnings and cut it to shape. Works well in my 86".

Same here, 'chequer plate' rubber matting cut to size.

Taped a couple of cornflake boxes together and made a template, used that to cut the matting to size. Been in the vehicle 12 or so years now but I remember it smelt a bit when first installed.

You can see it in the picture below

I think someone in the UK was making the period correct 'link matting' but this would be very expensive.

I cut a Bunnings door mat to fit.

Greetings from the UK. I have just joined to be able to post on this thread ,as I have a possible source of floor mats . Unfortunately for you they are in England but they look like a decent product . 86" Front Mats ( Pair ) | Exmoor Trim (https://www.exmoortrim.co.uk/86-front-mats-pair.html) . They also do mats for 80”s.
i keep meaning to get some for my 107” but haven’t got around to it . The big hassle is that the postal service to and from Australia is really rubbish at the moment . I hope this helps .

As a side note. Pegasus does not have a very good reputation with Series One owners in the UK.
