[s-cars] Keeping Carpets Clean

[Daniel Hussey]

I'm not too big on the black mats.  Unfortunately for those of us with Ecru
interior...  Ecru mats are no longer available from Audi.  And, Audi has
since changed it's mat manufacturer to a sub-par supplier.  Not near the
quality of the originals.  The black mats look sharp when clean and won't
show stains as easily (Ecru is really hard to keep clean), but it tends to
show dirt and dust a lot easier and just makes the mats look discolored.

My favorite mats that I have seen (in recent history anyways) are those
thickly stictched mats that come in Volvo Cross Country's.  Man, I really
like those...  they even make a very nice durable matching rear cargo mat.

Any idea who makes these?  Any interest out there on having them make a set
for the Audi S-cars?  Maybe a group purchase sorta deal?

Lee, and others...  anyone out there who makes these mats for Volvo?

Later,
