| Looking for photos from anyone who has put the rubber floor back in their VW Beetle and where you got you kit, any help would be appreciated. I'm undecided on if I want to go with carpet or the rubber floor. |

If you decide to go with Wolfsburg West "rubber" floor mats, I would suggest maybe trying the black ones. I got the gray ones, and I have a couple of beefs:
1) I left them in the back seat for a long time (before installing them), and they turned yellow/brown where the sun was hitting them, and;
2) They're not actually a quality rubber composition, they're more like a cheapish vinyl/plasticky type material, so they're not exactly soft and pliable like synthetic rubber (therefore they don't lay and comply like rubber), and when you scuff the gray ones, it leaves a permanent white mark where the scratch/scuff happened (as would be expected with a cheap, vinyl or plastic-like material). |
