Paul64 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Can anyone recommend a place to buy those nice tray like rubber mats for a Defender 110. My CSW carpet mats suck up water like a sponge leaving a constant damp smell. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 The Genuine ones are pretty good... and you'll need to take the carpets out and dry them for at least 24hrs to get them properly dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSi110 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I've got a full set of Genuine LR mats with the tray. £50 for the front and the same for the back. The rears lock together, so there's no leak path in the middle, which is nice. The tray works very well and will hold a fair amount of liquid. My front passenger door at the bottom front edge / corner leaks, but only from road spray or puddles as I haven't waded deep enough yet. You'll find that the water gets UNDERNEATH the rubber mat and soaks the carpet, unless you wade very deep and get over 3/4" of water in your footwell, but as the mat covers the entire carpet, you'll have to be serious to flood it. I inspect my carpet every weekend, remove it if wet and leave it over a radiator in the kitchen for a day. It's soon dry and hasn't smelt odd yet. When it does start to pong, I'll buy a new carpet. Must fix that leak as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
widget Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 After the last soaking I took the footwell carpets out. With the genuine rubber mats you can't tell the carpets aren't there either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSi110 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Land Rover dealer or try eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul64 Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 Land Rover dealer or try eBay. I can find mats on e-bay but not the tray type. As for a dealer, one mortgage is enough thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
