Anyone need 'R' mats? SOLD

Post by **scot850** » 14 Nov 2017, 19:38

I see these for sale locally. Not mint but if anyone want them I can pick them up and ship them for you at cost. $20 CDN = approx. $15 US.

I believe I have met the guy and these are from his son's 'R' that was written off. I had thought of just picking them up but I already have a set sitting on a shelf along with many other carpet and rubber mats sets!

PM me if you are interested.

Neil.

I'm interested but shipping to Serbia would be triple more than their price.

I have the same original mats but with Volvo letters on driver's one.

Hi Misha and TJ. Misha I'm sure shipping to Serbia would be huge, so you would really want to have them.

TJ I have replied to your PM.

I am picking these up tonight. The owner is who I thought it was and he confirms the LHF mat needs a good clean and has some wear.

I'll let you know once I have them how they look.

Neil.

Pictures of the mats. I gave them a quick clean as they had a few marks from sitting and flattened areas of pile with something sitting on them. Weird thing is the front (which have some wear) are lighter than the rears?!

: Rear mat (1)

: Rear mat (2)

: Passenger front mat

: Drivers front mat

I only gave the mats a quick clean with foam cleaner as it was too cold to run the steamer in the garage that day (-20C).

Anyone say idiot out there!?

Helps if you read the foam cleaner instructions fully. It says to vacuum after the material dries as it leaves a residue on the carpet. I used much more on the fronts than the rears.

As I had the carpet cleaner out today to clean a set of carpets (thankfully it is above -20C, actually around +6C) I cleaned the mats as well. It also seems they are sensitive to the direction the pile lies. They now look much closer in color!

Shipping once dry to one of our MVS friends in US!

Glad they found a home.
