Floor Mat Question?

[MPDano]

Are the 86 928S Front Mats the same as the OB Mats?

[MPDano]

Wow, no one knows?

They might be vendor to vendor, at some point some kind of fastener in the rear of the mat became common.

how about-- taking a peak in someones for sale one -- ebay motor 928s for sale, im sure the ones there are selling so immaculate that they have the white paper protectors over the floor coverings NOT.

Could you be a little more clear?

Mats or Carpet?

And what do you think is different? ( 86 is an OB,btw.)


My 85 euro front carpet pieces are very thick, dense pile carpet with a tough, patterned, fibrous backing sown together with vinyl edgeing all around. It has a special shaped piece sewn on that fits exactly over the LH boxes with a leather snap piece.

Under that is a seperate thick foam piece that provides padding and some sound insulation.

That is what the factory put in my car.

I have never seen or felt any auto carpet that comes close to this in thickness or quality.

Some of the new stuff I have seen in other 928's is not equal and new 997 carpet is not even close.

I didn't know that the 86 front floor was the same as an early OB. Hence, my sig is an 81.

Thanks guys for the input.
