Best of luck. They're very difficult to find these days. But they do occasionally come up on places like eBay. I'll let you know if I spot any.

I remember when we bought our car brand new we tried to persuade the dealership to throw in a full set for free but they wouldn't give in. We eventually paid £20 for the four.

You may think I don’t know what I’m talking about but in my experience you sometimes just get lucky – like the time I bid on a pair of NOS genuine TCAs and got them unopposed for £20 when people were asking three figures for them. They are now on the car and doing a splendid job. And the time I got an absolutely mint front valance for £420. It came up on eBay and like a fool I ummed and ahed until it disappeared. Luckily there had been no bids so when it reappeared I got in there quick. There was only one other bid. It is now on a friend’s car.

Admittedly there were more parts around in those days so don’t expect to get what you want any time soon.

There's a pair of genuine front mats in the May CCI magazine but at £95 second hand I doubt you'd be interested.
