Recommendations for decent mats...
« on: April 30, 2016, 12:03:38 pm »
Sick of my driver's one wearing out whilst the others stay in good nick. Even considered rubber mats to solve the problem and keep clean.

What mats does everyone like?

Rubber mats are good especially in wet weather  and easy to clean but don't absorb dust hence dusty interior in my opinion.

Genuine rubber mats for me - been using them for years in GTIs current set in my Golf are 8 years old and still look great.  Just wet them and scrub with a yard brush to bring them up as new.

Yep the rubber mats are best. Have some genuine carpet ones in mine, but they're forever getting dirty.

They do have a nice GTI logo on them, you know, just in case you forget what you're driving  :signLOL:

Genuine textile and rubber ones for the winter/wet months (most of the year then  :rolleye:). Neither are particularly cheap but they both look good and fit the studs in the carpet.

Gone but not forgotten :-)
