[TR] TR4 front floor mats

[Jay Holekamp]

"TR4s came with carpet but I had not heard of an original mat." This is 
inaccurate. TR4s were sold with rubber floor mats that snapped in and went from 
the front of the seats to up the foot-well. I have distinct memory of throwing 
away the worn out mats in my '64 TR4 and replacing them & the original grey 
(turned brown) rayon carpets with a cheap black carpet set from J C Whitney in 
the early 1970's.  There is no source of repro TR4 rubber floor mats that I know 
- a very scarce and seldom seen item.

The Roadster Factory, who did reproduce the TR3 rubber mats, had no interest in 
reproducing TR4 rubber mats due to low demand for TR3 mats, the last time we 
talked several years ago. Maybe with the increased restoration of TR4s this will 
change.
