I've got three perfectly good mats in my shed, had to replace the lot with ScoobyParts ones as my Driver one was knackered.

Originals had worn through, so replaced with Scoobyworlds Prem set, front,back and boot mats. Brilliant quality.

Do they say 'Type UK' on them? If not, is there a LHD market for the cars where people may have unworn 'passenger side' mats for sale?

Just a thought.

No type UK, just STI.
My standard mats were the same, all mint bar the drivers one, typical.

Unless you drive around in slippers, they look like they would get pretty dirty quite quickly.

All depends how clean you like to keep your car, I'm a 24/7 compulsive clean freak

You'll still wear a hole where you heel digs in , no matter how clean your shoes are.

Very true, but Norm was on about dirt more than hole damage.
But personal pref I dont like the metal plate look, cheapens the car's interior even more, again depends on what you want from the car looks wise, each to their own

My mats definitely have STi Type UK written on them, they are grey with the writing embroidered in pink. The other mats shown are nice and I probably will get a set to use, still want to try and get an original drivers mat though so I can keep a complete set of the originals together. So if anyone knows of one, hears of one or comes across one for sale please give me a shout!!..

I have found the easiest solution to be using the genuine Subaru rubber mats in my classic wagon. Really easy to clean too - quick hose down and scrub with soapy water. spray with Black-in-a-flash and job done
