Can anyone suggest a source for XJ8 replacement (or reasonably priced) floor mats?

Thanks

 

i just sold a lambs wool floor mats for the xj8 .. what color are you looking for?

 

The dealer sells OEM replacement mats for all their cars.

 

Now that Villa Jag asked, I might as well ask as well. How much for OEM S-type mats? I'm sorry, I know this is the wrong section, but I'm just curious.

 

the lambs wool sells for 650-800 depends what dealer you buy them from. for the 2005 VDP

 

My dealer sells OEM's for about 70.00 for the fronts and probably about 50.00 for the rears. Personally every set of OEM's that I've ever had were allways fuzzy and crappy looking. I think that you can get a nicer and more durable set of direct replacement's aftermarket. http://www.autosportcatalog.com/index.cfm?sc=3364

 

I agree, but I think that having the factory JAGUAR floormats has a certain prestigeness. Maybe if you have the OEM ones under some nice aftermarket ones, that way it looks good in the event of reselling.

 

Actually that's what I do, just put the aftermarkets over the OEM's The link that I show does have Jaguar logo mats!

 

Am going nuts finding Jaguar logo car mats in general. Need front and backs for 1999 xj8 vandenplas....beige interior. tried automat but could not view colors or the leaper logo itself. Any help out there?

 

jaguarmerriamparts.com, the Jag dealer in Merriam, Kansas, offers the original Jaguar-logo rubber mats with carpet heel inserts for bargain prices. They also discount price the lambswool carpets. No affiliation, typical disclaimers. I couldn't find the part numbers on their website so I just called them. Here are the part numbers and the current listed prices:

MAT-RUBBER (Jaguar Rubber Floor Mats, Black, Front): C2C7368 $59.61

MAT-RUBBER (Jaguar Rubber Floor Mats, Black, Rear): C2C7369 $18.93

These are heavy, high-quality OE Jaguar mats, so I consider them an amazing bargain by Jag standards. However, I do not know if they come in any color other than black....

Jaguar Merriam also sells the lambswool carpets at discounted prices, and if you're in the western states Gaudin Jaguar of Las Vegas does the same (shipping from Merriam, Kansas is cheaper for me in Tennessee).

Also check out the Carid website that XJL recommended in a recent thread on this same subject - those mats look beautiful also.

Cheers,

Don

 

The factory lambs wool is costly, wares poorly and difficult to clean. If you can find a high end carpet store check out their last years samples. They are free or up to fifty dollars each. The fit perfectly front and back just by turning them. I like Fabrica especial their far east patterns. They are the company that custom sculptures three dimensional carpet portraits for home and office.

 

Dont go the weathertech.com all weather mat route. They do not fit the XJ8 as I found out.

 

I have to beautiful Autosport floormats for sale less than 1 month usage . car sold Email me at ddsski@optimum.net if interested

 

I have a set of VDP Lambswool in black for 04 XJ (04 VDP was normal wheelbase).
Set of 4 brand new in bag
$400 plus shipping .

 

Dumb question: Will those fit an '04 XJR? If so I *might* be interested (if they're still available).

 

I am quite sure they would fit XJR, assuming it is short wheelbase, which I think all XJR's are. And yes they are available. They are black.

 

I'm new today to this forum with a new addition to my rolling family in a 2000 Jaguar XK8. My hobby is all about improvement, customized, and doing it myself. So this may seem a little different than the typical purist view but here is how I get high quality floor mats. I either buy a few yards of the top quality carpet from online or sometimes use industrial fabrics, also bought online. Buy a roll of edge binding used to make area rugs. You can get it in several widths. Take it to your local bike night and look up the vender, always one there, that sews patches on leather jackets. as an example I had a set of three made for my Corvette that are gorgeous and here is the breakdown

3 yards Cashmere Black dense Jute back Carpet ------ $ 45.00
15 yard roll Edge binder, red nylon silk ---------------- $ 7.00
Cut the carpet using the originals as templates with razor
Sewing cost while i wait for 30 minutes with double
row black stitching ---------------------------------- $ 15.00
Total Cost ----- $67.00
