Re: Mats for G500
That link has a lot of mat info and is here: https://www.gwoa.co.uk/forum/g-floor-mats I expect they can still be sourced by MB, from Germany, but the price is likely 100+ now. I like the suggestion of pattern matching with a carpet shop! Or, there are wall to wall carpet kits on eBay and Amazon for G-Wagens. Maybe GWOA should get a set of 4 generic ones made up, with a discrete red flag logo on the corners.

I doubt MB will have any RHD mats other than 2010 onwards and I believe they are different

Re: Mats for G500

Problem is MB do not support the 463 parts so much as no militray stuff unlike 460/461

So the early 90's 463 parts are getting hard to find new especially trim etc 

Accessories like mats have been diffecult for years

Add to that RHD production all bar stopped from 1995 to 2010 with only a few dozen RHD G500's in 1999 and 2000 and you have a perfect storm

Hens teeth

Rocking horse poop

Which ever way you look it would be a miricle to find RHD 463 mats or like a few are after ENGLISH G500 book set for pre CANBUS car to 2001 ish

If you search the net you will find a fair few options on mats, made to measure and some really nice quilted ones that fit right up to the console side for half the money MB would want for plain mats
