I am going to try the chair mats that are used in offices. They are a heavy plastic, but clear. Not sure how hard they are to cut to fit. I like the color of my carpet and don't want to cover it up with black. Also being cheap, I like the idea of coco-mats it is just the cost. When you think about it, how much did this car cost and I am concerned about the cost of mats? Not sure where that thought process when off the rails. When you make the decision about mats, could you post what you decided and maybe some pictures?
