bugger, not good then lol

Basically you bought the wrong year mats for your model I think  :angry:

Best sell your old mats and get the new correct fitting mats for your model year  :smug:

The lugs changed on all Golfs last year I believe

On new cars they are just round lugs and the mats have round holes and just push on

On older cars they are oval and you twist the lug 90 degrees to secure mat in place

So if anyone is buying mats on E-bay - Check your current fitting and check with the seller  :grin:

they must of changed them in some of the later 07 models as mine are the straight locking pin type and not the turn lever style which my 05 GTi had before. Its not just a fitment for the ed30

i actually have not got the mats yet, and the dealer knows what my model year is so should provide the correct ones, this post was in case he doesnt supply the correct ones
