Owned a set of these for about 6 months now. Excellent quality and the RS6 badges are professionally stitched into the mat (unlike in the advert photo.) OK, not quite the same as the OE ones which have larger logos but then they're rarer than rocking horse sh!t (and very expensive.)MattV8 wrote:The 49.99 ones.

I found that the rear mats have to be carefully fitted to allow the seats to move over them without catching the runners, and I had to bend the passenger mat a bit to get it to fit the contours of the floor.
I would like a second set for the winter but in rubber...

I need to get some of these because I keep forgetting what I'm driving and I'm getting a crick in my neck from trying to read the seats.

Look at the steering wheel badge then you fool. I LOVE my matts with the rs6 badge on them. Almost as much as my 3 spoke racing steering wheelShoppinit wrote:I need to get some of these because I keep forgetting what I'm driving and I'm getting a crick in my neck from trying to read the seats.

Do you also have an RS6 T-shirt?
No badge on the high spec steering wheels. Only the base model ones.

Re: What car mats ?
Don't suppose you could put a close up pic of the badge as on the ebay link they look stuck on and naff. Also of the piping round the edge as some are again, poor quality.
Cheers.

Re: What car mats ?
I've totally given up on ebay car mats. It could just be my bad luck, but I find that even the expensive ones are at best back-door mat quality. I wish you could still get OE mats.
