Yes, I have had them fitted for a good while now.

I like them.

You may find that the pressing in the rubber is in the wrong place to be cut for the dipswitch.
I also had to cut out a few ‘channels’ through the outer raised section by the door aperture to allow the water to drain off the mats.

Also take them out every once in a while to let the floor dry out and breathe!

Interesting... I like those but cant find them on the US version of eBay.  Shipping would be steep to get them here.  Will see who carrys them State side.

Thanks tomster, no dipswitch  in the floor so no worries there.

They're better than my ill-fitting aldi ones, stand by for credit card action.

I have a floor mounted dip switch, I quite like it but what have others fitted instead? (It's already on a a relay)

Good afternoon,

I guess these are the same thing?

https://www.paddockspares.com/pm617-autograph-range-rubber-mats-front-pair.html

I ordered a set for the 88", two sets arrived because I had double ordered (and paid) so I waited until I got another project and fitted them in the 109".

They do a good job as floor mats.

Kind regards,
PTT

PS A big thank you to all who gave up many hours to make sure the Forum still functions properly.  :cheers :cheers
