VVDS has brand new ones available

MISS VDUB - November 26th, 2011 at 07:27 PM

Make sure you get a set that look like the original as many repro's don't.

We bought ours off a guy in the U.S who had made a mould out of his RHD oval mats as he needed a new set and they just weren't available to the RHD club in the states. Only ones available were the dodgy repro's from overseas. Man they are so good, spot on. Unfortunately we bought his "spare" set he was going to keep, convinced him to sell (with super thanks to the help of Nath "Bugboy")

Hey hey,

I bought a set of mats from the guy in the US, that Miss VDub is talking about.
Vintage Veedub bought RHD rubber mats from him too!

The quality is fantastic... call Vintage Vee Dub. ;)

Not sure Classic has them in stock anymore though Dion, you can try though?

His mould was only good for so many of them, he kept a couple for himself and the rest were purchased by Wolfsburg West (who George gets stock from). Wolfsburg not longer stock them as they all sold out. We were able to get the set we did as Nath's mate works for Wolfsburg West and knew him personally. Not what you know but who you know some times! ;)

Haha Dion, they seem to be like Gold now. Hopefully VVDS can help you out, or even try hunting around in the U.K?

My set of mats were from 'the guy in the US', also. Very nice.

His name is Eric Jones, and it may pay to ask him if he will be making any more. ericj@thelabelcompany.com

Cheers, Greg

MISS VDUB - November 28th, 2011 at 11:57 AM

Eric wont be making anymore Greg, hence why we were lucky enough to buy his "just incase" spare.

As mentioned the mould he created was only good for a set number before being no longer usuable. He made this mould for himself, but made as many as he could for those who requested them. He kept what he wanted and the rest were sold the Wolfsburg West. Unfortunately there is not a great need for RHD floor mats over there, so the small minority grabbed what they needed from this batch.

Ah dang it... It's all good I'm onto some other ones, but ash, if u an bob need to offload them.... Hey, u know what they say, a friend in need..
