I'm thinking of ordering a Madmatz set for the cab in my bus and was wondering if anyone has any pics handy they could post up, particularly if they're from the natural Mats range.

I'm undecided between Malay Amber and Flatweave Cirk at the mo do it would be good to see done pics if finished products.

Cheers
 
Fitted a set in mine last year, well made and fit well :mrgreen:

I had them in mine too Bobster, I think my fitting technique may have been a bit OTT looking back now :lol: :lol:

Cheers Bib although I'm really liking the natural range rather than carpet.

Lemur, can you remember what style that was?
 
We've had matmatz ones in the cab of our bus for 3 seasons now and I have to say they havent worn that well at all and need replacing, we also found they were a bit short in the width, ie didnt quite fit the width of the floor itself, plan to replace ours with some new ones from Bromsgrove Auto Trimers

Hi Bobster,
I think it was this set: http://madmatz.absolutewebhosting5.co.uk/prod6.asp?ID=279&sub_cat=679&offset=&prod_id=165" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; in 'Malay amber' with brown trim. They'll do you any combo you want..

Graham L,
Yeah I'm a little concerned by the 'wear' I've seen to my mates set, although only just having fitted mine I guess time will tell, will be a shame if they aren't durable because i'm happy with fit/look.

You get a binded heal pad for the pedals that you can take out at shows.
 
have to say with wet/muddy/sandy/dirty feet/boots/wellies i'll probably stick with my OG black mat :roll:

although they do look nice :)
 
I'd like to fit some cab mats but because I've got tubs, none of these will fit right :( They look smart though!
 
I have MadMatz cab mat seat stand, walk through and engine cover. To be honest the fit is poor and they haven't lasted very well at all.
I will changing. Back to OG rubber mats in the new year or the heritage version that have the correct rubber trim that fits in the seat tubs.
 
The mats look nice, great in a show bus.

On the other hand, a total PITA to keep clean if you actually go camping in your bus.

Could you tell me if you glued the dash top mat in place or us it just laid over the original? Also, am I right in thinking you've removed the dashtop vent trims and replaced them over the top of the mat with longer screws?

Looks great btw !
