Winter's comming - who needs a nice vinyl floor mats?

December 21, 2006, 04:38:26 AM

Hello!
Some of us who aren't lucky like guys in eg. Texas, Arizona or Southern Italy (anyone with T-bird there?) and who are driving their fox T-bird and Cougars in winter, were probably looking for some nice looking floor mats for their cars.
After searching the web and looking at many, sometimes very expensive offers on eBay I found a nice set of Ford factory vinyl (not cheap Chinese rubber) floor mats described as 1987-97 T-bird mats. I e-mailed the guy selling them and asked if he's sure if they will fit fox-body T-bird. Got a reply that they have one '87 T-bird and they fit well.
I thought that $39.99 isn't that much if they're really OK, so I ordered them. They were only available in grey and blue becouse there weren't any red ones left. So I was double-worried as I wasn't sure if they will fit as well as I expect and if the grey color isn't to bright.
I got the mats last weekend and... the color is pretty good, matching grey "dots" on the factory seats inserts and they fit great!
Pass side is perfect, drivers side shouldn't have one cut out on the left (MN12 has kick panel there), but it's doesn't matter.

Here are some pics:
