When removing myself from drivers seat I have to slide myself up the seat thus dragging feet back over floor mat/carpet. The carpet/mat inevitably bunch's up at cross member. I am now thinking of getting a few more dome fasteners fitted down sides and maybe on end nearest peddles. Any thoughts or easier solutions?

Mine just have two press-studs close to the cross member. They are screwed to the wooden floor and the other part fitted to the mat. Works fine for me...others have used velcro.

I got so feed-up with the mat getting bunched-up that I took it out. This has two advantages. 1) Does not get wet when it rains. 2) Useful when showing anyone who asks that a Morgan is made of wood

I have the original style ribbed rubber floormats in mine--they do not bunch up and look nice enough.

I too like the ribbed rubber mats which my Sport was supplied with, 'tho I was aghast yesterday to see that my right heel has already worn a hole through the mat on the drivers side (after 2 years & 17 000 km).

Giles.
I replaced my original (all black)carpet floor mats, with a new set from Melvn Rutter about 7 years ago. They still look great after a further 25,000 miles.
The new mats are dark red, piped black and Barbara at Rutters sent me carpet samples, so I could get the best colour match.
Thoroughly recommended (I have no links at all with Rutters other than as a satisfied customer of their Parts Dept.)

Make that two sets (piped with tan edging ?) if you're speaking to Uncle Melv!
