Yes I'm searching for "Hens Teeth", "Rocking horse Poop" etc

I'm trying to find a pair of original rubber car mats (part numbers 51472149612 or 51472239693 - these are early and late version in a pair) which are now out of production,
RHD version of these LHD OEM ones...

or something similar to the WeatherTech ones (they only make them in LHD not RHD).

I know there are many aftermarket rubber mats out there, but they all look crap, just like some generic pattern cut out of a piece of flat rubber.

And I'm not interested in those diamond patterned fake leather things either.

So anyone know of someone selling a set of RHD OEM rubber mats?
Or can anyone recommend a decent seller that has something akin to the WeatherTech ones?

Someone is selling the "progressive mats"

They are LHD though, apparently they "fit".

I once saw a pair of these for sale, and the rubber ones and passed on both -_-

Dave, I have WeatherTech. Very happy with it. You have to buy a T-plug thingy (and make a small hole on the top of the ridges) to lock into the car floor slots. Otherwise the mats move all over. Happy to help you with that.

The WeatherTech ones look perfect, apart from they are only available LHD, and as my car is RHD they wont work unfortunately.
 
Those 4 series ones look better than the old z4 specific ones!

They also avoid a wierd issue that I've found with a few (including in my 7 series) - where the raised up sections are horizontal, your heel slips down into the 'valleys' sometimes - leading to a bit of fannying around with your throttle control.

First world problems.

I've been checking out as many photos as I can find to confirm that they'd fit, and I just can't find anything conclusive. The problem being the difference between the sections for the accelerator and the footrest. On the photos of the 4 series mats the footrest is further forward, but on and E89 it's further back than the accelerator. So I really don't want to be paying out £80 to find out!

Also, I don't drive in high heels! :rofl: :driving: :thumbsup: ;)
 
Dave I had these in my old E89. When I got the G29 I bought a set of genuine BMW ones also, I had to wait a couple of days for delivery, so, I tried the ones out of the E89 and they fitted. Maybe the G29 ones will fit the E89? do you know someone locally that might have some you can try, I'm happy to measure mine if that helps.
