Cargo floor mat in early bus

Late barndoors have a moulded front and rear rubber mat.

Early buses have cut mat in the cab area.

Anyone got a picture of an original cargo floor mat in a pre 53 bus

The only picture I could find is

Is this correct. The cut outs for the seats don't seem right.

I'd also like to see a picture of an OG front floor mat from a pre 53.

Cheers

I believe that early style mat is only for the really early buses. I'm not sure when the exact date vw finished using it. I'm guessing someone with a parts book will have the answer

Does that mean mid 52's have the later style moulded mat?
Anyone got a picture.

Does this mean they also have the moulded cab mat? It seems to make sense they're introduced at the same time.
