UK dealers sell good mats which have Impreza Turbo on them . About £50 I think. They look good in my opinion.

Bought a set of Autostyle mats, excellent quality but you have to remove the plastic mat retainer at the front right hand side of the driver's seat to get them to fit. The problem then is the retainer supplied hooks onto the very thin Subaru carpet. Mat then moves all over the place. Caught over the accelerator pedal on one ocassion, still it made for a quick overtake!!

Got mine from Graham Goode.
Good quality, dont move as there is a pin that you put into the existing carpet.
I got the STI version but assume all the mats will be of the same quality.

£57.00 incl delivery.

Why not try, Glen at Revolution, He gets mats made for him which fit like a glove and are of similar quality to autostyle.
I think he has them with the following embroidered on the drivers mat, WRX, STI and Subaru.
I bought a set of WRX ones with red piping and I think they are awesome.
A lot cheaper than everyone else as well!!!.

I'll have the mats in my car on Sunday(Well Lane), if you want to have a look at them before you buy.
