Hey guys does anyone know anywhere/anyone in australia who sells these? I'm referring to the aftermarket ones with blue/red color, not the stock ones...

I tried looking on ebay, but the only sellers are in USA and the shipping is a killer

Don't get them from ebay, or they will be backwards!

Good luck though, I ended up getting black ones from Honda for my car as I didn't use brains to look for them elsewhere apart from ebay... cost $132.50! Stupid credit card, argh!

hmmm just use 3M mats then. i've got those in my car. costs me about $160 for a set of 5. not the fanciest mats around, but they are really good. water resistant easy to clean, etc. i'm looking for genuine ek9 mats... if anyone wants to sell them... hehehe... traders are all sold out!

If it's for an ek hatch, i can trace my oem ones and send you the outlines so you can get them made.... I thought about getting some red ones made up myself :D

the back ones would be ok since its symmetrical

as with the front ones, i'm going to (depending on what is ee when i get em)

1. swap around left/right front mats so the grippy plastic "footrest" is under the driver's seat

2. buy one of those grippy plastic footrests (prolly an aluminum aftermarket one) and stick it on the LHS one...

I htink its going to fit : )

The front peices may not fit the drivers and passengers side properly because it's left hand drive???

i realise that... but then i put em in according to how they were made, as in left to left , right to right... only problem then would be that the non-slip plastic mat is on the left (which does look dum i admit)

hey i have those mats and i highly advise against them especially for the drivers side as the cleats at the back will slip!! after awhile it gets annoying :(
