I know, I know, its a striped out racer but I just fancy some comfort on those LONG trips. It is my daily driver...

So any tips on where to get them etc - much cheapness please!

Do you mean a full trimmed carpet (ie covering all or part of the bare ally in the footwells) or carpet mats?

Owen on the British cars BBS had IIRC a full trimmed carpet set fitted, may be worth cross posting to ask him where he had it done.

Mats are available from pretty much anywhere (stick down with double sided velcro). Lotus supply mats with the Elise logo on them, otherwise most of the mat supply companies will sell some to fit the elise (Autostyle IIRC offer a variety of options, colour, fabric etc).

Hope thats of some use to you.

As usual...buy direct from autostyle (www.autostyle.co.uk) They make all official Lotus carpet mats, are cheaper than buying through a dealer, and can be got in ANY colour...not just the Lotus selection of green, red, blue and black.

Their web site says that they are only available via dealers, and you can't order them on-line????

how odd...you certainly used to be able to order online....and you could buy them directly...I have a spare black set of elise mats in case my existing ones get tatty....mind you, this was from the guy who used to own it (was sold to Saxon Industries) so maybe they've changed how they do things.....
