reat news that word is getting around about our plans to reproduce these rub=
ber mats for the early Sprites. It=E2=80=99s been a personal mission for mor=
e than 25 years now and as I=E2=80=99m at the final stages of a 3 year Mk1 r=
estoration I was determined that this car wouldn=E2=80=99t have carpets fitt=
ed at any cost. Things evolved further when I managed to find a UK source fo=
r ribbed red rubber. The ribs are slightly finer than the original and the r=
ed is more terracotta but in many ways it does look like the colour of a 60 y=
ear old slightly faded original mat rather than shiny new ones . It=E2=80=99=
s still in very early stages of development but I=E2=80=99d like to think th=
at we will have something to offer within the next 6 weeks. I have attached p=
ictures of the mats fitted to my own car on which we developed them, plus so=
me of the display that we had on our stand at a Sprite 60th show in England t=
his year. As you can see the plain rubber areas are made of a matching vinyl=
 and stitched to the rubber which works well. The floor mats have been cut i=
n 2 sections and again with the plain area made of matching vinyl but not st=
itched together. We tried this but the fit was poor so it was decided that t=
rimming the cross member and chassis section in loose vinyl would give a bet=
ter result and then to lay the cut ribbed rubber pieces over the top. In tim=
e we want to look at removing sections of the ribbing to detail the heel mat=
, the borders and possibly even the circular inscription on the left side of=
 the tunnel with the words =E2=80=98Lift Mat To Fill=E2=80=99  Also another a=
rea that we need to investigate into further is the direction of the ribbing=
 on the tunnel sides. I have now seen this in both vertical and horizontal o=
n so called original sets. It maybe that we will need to offer both unless w=
e can determine which is most accurate but both ways is possible.

tyle=3D"font-family:sans-serif;">Many thanks for your email and for contacti=
ng our company. It=E2=80=99s great news that word is getting around about ou=
r plans to reproduce these rubber mats for the early Sprites. It=E2=80=99s b=
een
 a personal mission for more than 25 years now and as I=E2=80=99m at the fin=
al stages of a 3 year Mk1 restoration I was determined that this car wouldn=E2=
=80=99t have carpets fitted at any cost. Things evolved further when I manag=
ed to find a UK source for ribbed red rubber.
 The ribs are slightly finer than the original and the red is more terracott=
a but in many ways it does look like the colour of a 60 year old slightly fa=
ded original mat rather than shiny new ones . It=E2=80=99s still in very ear=
ly stages of development but I=E2=80=99d like
 to think that we will have something to offer within the next 6 weeks. I ha=
ve attached pictures of the mats fitted to my own car on which we developed t=
hem, plus some of the display that we had on our stand at a Sprite 60<sup>th=
</sup> show in England this
 year. As you can see the plain rubber areas are made of a matching vinyl an=
d stitched to the rubber which works well. The floor mats have been cut in 2=
 sections and again with the plain area made of matching vinyl but not stitc=
hed together. We tried this but
 the fit was poor so it was decided that trimming the cross member and chass=
is section in loose vinyl would give a better result and then to lay the cut=
 ribbed rubber pieces over the top. In time we want to look at removing sect=
ions of the ribbing to detail
 the heel mat, the borders and possibly even the circular inscription on the=
 left side of the tunnel with the words =E2=80=98Lift Mat To Fill=E2=80=99&n=
bsp; Also another area that we need to investigate into further is the direc=
tion of the ribbing on the tunnel sides. I have now
 seen this in both vertical and horizontal on so called original sets. It ma=
ybe that we will need to offer both unless we can determine which is most ac=
curate but both ways is possible.</span></p><div><span style=3D"font-family:=

:sans-serif;">With the help of a recognised English Sprite expert and the lo=
an of the patterns he had made many years ago for his own hand made mats, we=
 were able to accurately recreate a good
 fitting tunnel cover. I must be clear that these mats are not pre-moulded a=
s the originals but are more an acceptable attempt at something close to the=
 appearance and that can be produced and sold for a reasonable price. At the=
 moment it=E2=80=99s too early to give
 you an accurate price as we don=E2=80=99t yet have all costs &nbsp;but are h=
oping to keep the price around the =C2=A3300 mark for the set including the d=
oor liners. Also we would only be able to supply in red and black but are ho=
peful of blue and green in the future. This may
 depend on sales as the supplier of the red require a minimum 100 meter orde=
r to produce in other colours. We are prepared to invest in this if sales lo=
ok remotely possible.&nbsp; We will certainly be making some notable publici=
ty when the kits are ready to sell
 and I will of course contact you directly to advise.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</spa=
