Slightly off topic (only a little), one of the only things I've never liked about the MK7 platform is the drivers foot area. Due to the "hump" behind the accelerator pedal, all mats I've ever seen (be they rubber or carpet), stop quite low down, exposing the carpet area above the mats to soiling from your feet etc.

I've always been on the look out for a set of mats that extend upwards more behind the pedals to protect that area but never fouind any.

Don't imagine many manufacturers want to make a mat that fits underneath pedals for fear of being sued in the event it happened to interfere with them and cause an accident.

Does anyone have a worn out set of carpet mats that they don't want?

I don't actually need the whole mats, just the four fixings that clip onto the studs on the floor. I have an aftermarket one piece mat in my Caravelle, but it has no fixings to hold it in place. I'd like to be able to clip it onto the factory floor studs.
