car mats opinions and experiances

[bmw156]

hey
right, the nova is a daily user for me and kelbelle, so a lot of driving etc, i have floor mats in the seat and the driver one is always rubbing through. its the carpet material.

a few questions, do rubber ones wear through as well.

or does anyone have any tips for us to stop going through them so often?

I found rubber ones last slightly longer but are more slippy when wet. I now have chequer plate ones of Ebay in my daily driver and want some custom tailered ones for my saloon when I find somewhere that does them

Slip a carpet floor title in there. They are much harder wearing. Doesnt look as nice tho but works.

Rubber floor mats are ok, the misses has them in her Ka. Absolute nightmare when wet though...

I won some for the Nova off e-bay, was chuffed as they were Genuine Vauxhall items.
When they arrived, they're clearly for an Astra H. :tard:

I'll be contacting the above company.

Don't get the cheap coloured ones frm halfords, better off putting toilet paper down lol mine have worn through already, about a month or 2 if that :(

Ive borrowed my genuine GM ones out of my cav with "VAUXHALL" written down the side and hey ho perfect fit, i just make sure i rub off oil mud or muck from my feet before getting in and making sure theyre hoovered and cleaned at least once a week lol

Worse when some nutters gel'ed them up i can tell ya.:roll: lol

[Edd]

anyone know if you can buy the rubber ones vauxhall? or are they NLS?

[Keif]

All Nova mats are NLS from Vauxhall.

[ade]

I find my matrs slip forward and get stuck up by my pedals! Clutch pedal wouldnt come back the other day because of them!

lol

[Spudly]

GM mats with screw in plastic clip things are your friend on that one ade thats why i bought them as i cant stand mats that ride up under the pedals!

[L14MNP]

I use rubber ones from Morrisons lol. Scrapyardtastic. Don't slip off em when wet either.

BMW156, tell her to stop poking her heels through them. I reckon that's the main issue. lol

[vaughanmc]

OE Nova rubber mats are about the best I'd say :)

[Ernie]

ive got metal mats then its just the floor.
No carpets for me lol.
