Interior Trim - have my mats shrunk?!

[peebee]

Driver's side mat has Velcro at the back edge and a Velcro matching strip under the seat, but if I put them together the mat's about six inches too short! (it doesn't reach the bulkhead at the front). I don't have any leaks and so don't think it's shrunk - problem is the mat slips all over the place now.

Also,the passenger side vent (alongside the door but on the facia)has a tube behind it that stops in mid air behind the dash. There is a pipe on the heater at 90 degrees to the tube but no way they can be linked as it stands. Should they be connected and if so is an elbow joint of some sort used. I know the vents are a bit acedemic when the roof's off but it's nice to get things right!

Thanks in advance for comments.

Go to the plumbing section in B&Q and get a nice elbow joint - that's what TVR used too.

Thanks Jay, of course they didn't seem to pop along to B&Q when they built mine! Guess I'll have to do it for them!

what colour are your mats ? I have selection of new ones which I got at the TMS auction which might fit

What colours have you got?

Jay

Maybe the TVR has hydrated in the rain.

Snorky, they're dark blue (with a hint of purple - as Dulux would say) with dark blue edging. Do you have anything similar?

Will have a look tonight what I've got left....
