    Folks - does anyone know of a source that makes fitted carpets for a 412? If not, any suggestions on the best way to go about it? The ones in my car have seen better days.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Dave

    I think Reoriginals do them. They are based in Texas.

    Cheers

    DO NOT USE AUTOMOBILIA in the Netherlands!!! I found them on eBay offering allegedly factory replacement carpeting and floor mats to replace my OEM's.

    The proof is in the pictures. The first issue as you can see below is that their supposed factory replacements are not, in fact, anywhere near the dimensions they ought to be. There is no argument about that and I had to discard this piece all together from the kit they sold me and make new ones out of similar material. I believe these run along side the transmission tunnel and part of the center console.

    The second issue, and more surprising, is that they neglected to include a second piece that runs along the door opening I believe, as also depicted below in the last picture. It speaks volumes as to their quality control. Even more upsetting was when I reached out to them about some kind of assistance with these 2 issues, they simply ignored me! After 2-3 attempts in as many weeks with no response, I had to get custom cut ones all around... Bastards.

    Last year, I emailed Automoblia and they were quite lofty with me. They even tried to convince me to send to them the old carpets for a template. I suggested that they negotiate some thing on the freight or price, but oh noooo. It seemed that they just wanted the old carpeting. The emails , I certainly considered somewhat rude. Run, don't walk away. What Klotsacs(ballbag, scrotums) in Dutch. I hope that this is of some value to someone. Thank you. Jq.

    I searched for the best solution and I found it. Buy wool carpeting (or polyamide), cut out the parts by copying the old. Do realize the edges by a sellar or specialist floor mats home.
    Total cost: $ 255
    Carpet: 3m² $ 50 = $ 150
    Border: 15 ml $ 7 = $ 105
    I'll post pictures when I have recovered the floor mats in person makes me edges.
    I've ripped the rubber parts on the old carpet after cleaning and here they are:
