Hi Bonsey,

I got Black Muz Matts, with Logos on the cross piece and heel mats on both sides. I'm very happy with them because it protects the cross piece carpet, which IMHO is crap!

I went for standard carpet with red trim and I think that it looks great.

I went for the luxury Muz Mats. Charcoal (matches the carpet) with blue edging and logo on the cross brace. Took less than a week to arrive with express shipping.

I'm very pleased with them.

As for anchor posts, I think you get them if you order the Honda mats. I got the Muz mats with the eyelets in them, but is a waste of time as I don't have the posts. Just use the velcro that comes with the matts to secure. It works fine.

Just got my New Lux Muz Mats (Black/Red trim & Logo) and these are my second set for my 02 (when it gets delivered).

You only get the Anchor Post when you order the Honda mats (cr*p), so use the Velcro.

Colour: I think black with yellow edging would look

But what ever you decide, remember you need to add in the VAT. The first set I never got the invoice from Customes, but I have just got a bill for

thanks for the posts,

having searched back further it appears -

Charcoal colour is best match for dash plastic , but black colour might be best match for the very black carpet in mine (which is what I guess I want).

logo and trim is good.
weights are needed to help driver side sit.

Anyone have Billet Design's Diamond Plate Floor Mats? They look quite nice in the picture but I guess could be quite tacky! No chance of slipping, folding or wear on those babies!

If you like the diamond plate effect have a look at what these guys offer:

www.autostyle.co.uk

in their Premier range

I have a set of these in dark red with red leather trim and carpet heel pads and they look superb. In 16000 miles I haven't even seen a hint of wear.

I wish they'd make them like Muz though so that they cover the chassis bars in front of the seats, as they are they are the same shape as OEM mats (but a whole lot nicer )

Tif,

these guys are 20 mins away from me,
their website claims custom, bespoke fit,
so why can't we see if they'll do a special design to fit across the crossbars?

want me to enquire?

I have thought of asking them in the past but if you are so close they might be able to do a template from your car I've had 3 sets of mats of them in the past (different cars) and think they are the dog's danglies. There must be a bloody good demand for UK sourced 1 piece prestige floor mats, especially in their red colour that is a perfect match to OEM carpet.....

Get in there, you might get the demo set free!
