Just got around to fitting the new mats from Autostyle. Here are some pics.

AWESOME. Love it

Best looking interior of a Fabia vRS I've seen.

Tom_vRS · 29-10-2006, 17:31

Very nice indeed.

I was going to get some geniune ones bound in red at the local carpet shop

bengie · 29-10-2006, 17:32

nice, and you got the pictures to work

Snoopie · 29-10-2006, 17:38

Well, It looks bloody great!

mj01 · 29-10-2006, 17:57

Thanks for the thumbs up guys! The Autostyle mats are top quality, better (thicker / denser) that the originals. I did toy with the rebinding option, but wonder how much cheaper it would have been - didn't make any enquiries. And this way, I have the original mats if they're preferred by any future buyer.
Yes, got photobucket to work, thanks to your help Bengie. However, although I attached three photos to my original posting (one from the driver's side and the other of the rear mats), only one has appeared! Assume I must have hit my limit.

bengie · 29-10-2006, 18:01

not hit the limit mate, i have loads of pictures on my account. it will be a simple error somewhere.

bengie · 29-10-2006, 18:03

here you go

beedie · 29-10-2006, 18:28

that is the nicest interior i've seen in a fab!!!!!!!!!
hows the fit of the mats?

mj01 · 29-10-2006, 19:21

Thanks again Bengie, what did I do wrong?

The mats fit perfectly. Autostyle only had the pattern for the non-vRS Fabia which didn't fit, so I drew a pattern around my original mats, including the position of the fixings, the logos (which they copied pretty succesfully) and the position of the heel pad which I wanted, and sent them off. Then, £64.95 and 28 days later, here they are. I had to transfer the original fixing "washers / hole surrounds" from the original mats, as the ones supplied did not have a recess for the twist toggles attached to the carpets; but easily done by just separating the top and bottom fixings with a broad bladed screwdriver and fixing them into the new mats through the holes in the positions I had specified.
