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.
