Where is the best place to get floor mats for the ti? I live in Seattle area so need something durable, but would like to get something with BMW logo or that is nice looking... Interior is Black/Red. Would prefer carpeted, but would consider a nice set of rubber if they looked good...

They are embroid and much thicker than the OEM mats. The guy is from South America and sells them all the time, it is his business. Highly recommended. | | | 12-07-2004, 04:08 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2004 Posts: 153 | Do you happen to remember the ID of the seller so I can look it up? | | | 12-07-2004, 04:30 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | IMO cloth mats suck. I had Weathertech mats in my Scirocco, they were excellent. I bought rubber mats from Bav Auto two months ago. They work with the floor clips and are Made in Germany, an excellent deal. I have pics if interested. Quote: Originally Posted by brucelee I got a beautiful set of M2 mats on EBAY for $40 plus shipping. They are embroid and much thicker than the OEM mats.

To find them you need to click on New Products in the top menu then scroll down to the clearance section of that page. They are normally $139.95, on clearance for $95 for a set of 4 (front & back) so if you have a grey interior and want quality carpet floor mats, you might want to check these out... I ordered the same ones only in Black, mine were full price... sigh...

They are called All-weather floor mats. Please excuse the dirty car, I have been more concerned with mods lately, than cleanliness. Check out my new Blaupunkt MP3 player mounted below the CD Head unit.

I will find out this winter. I do agree that the weathertechs are excellent, they hold alot of water in those channels.
