I got mine of eBay a few years back.

This is what was in when I bought it.

They'll fit fine, and if you're not a purist you'll be happy with them.


However....

I was driving my S2 one day when I got the willies with it having a sightly 'woolly' throttle response and hanging revs ... all sorts of problems flashed through my mind, vacuum pipes, TB linkage etc., it turned out that when I refitted my seats I didn't bother fitting the little locating strips that normally poke out from the front seat mounts, the locating strips that hold the mat in place, and stopping it moving forward and .... interfering with the throttle pedal.. :oops:

a few years ago a bloke bent the lamppost outside my house, due to a mat stuck on the loud pedal...

retaining fixings for mats are an absolute must..
