You must be in love with it to want to keep it, I got new mats hours after I got my car.

I'd suggest trying Art shops for dye, I'm sure it will go in the washer or in a big bucket.

you'll not get yer carpet in a washing machine coz its moulded to the shape of the floor and it'll be too big to fit.

Best way is to dye it using a bucket with the dye already diluted in it and then hand apply it - make sure that you get carpet out of car 1st and stick it on plastic sheeting to prevent staining everything red. Once applied following instructions rinse thoroughly by hosing off. Dunno if it will work - alternatively get a new/second hand carpet - think vauxhall will charge you about ?150 though if not a little more.

The part number will be burnt into the underside of each piece (comes in 2 sections front and rear
