Re: Floor mats...
I have a problem with them (of course 
) for year-round use.
They look too utilitarian for use all year. Will show dirt and scuffs easily. Our cars are GT cars; they "should" have the luxury of short nap carpeting when it's clear and dry.
I mean we seem to be willing to pay lots for leather and "upscale" trim pieces like CF, etc. IOW, there's no denying the "luxury" aspect of these cars.
The other problem I have with these particular matts? The channels for melted snow (water) seem to allow that water to flow out and under into the carpeting; that suuuucks. They'll stay damp all season! Better to have a rubber "tray" (containment) aspect to winter matts.

Isn't 987 in the order numbers for Boxsters? Are you sure that these will fit in the 997 Turbo? I currently have rubber mats from Weathertech but these look really nice. I'm checking to see if they'd indeed fit in the Turbo. If they do then I'm ordering a set.
Codes are directly from EU Tequipment Price List. Car on the picture is Turbo Cabrio.
Regarding codes... Code for normal floor mats with Nubuk leather is 987 044 800 01 xx(2pieces set) and 997 044 800 01 xx(4pieces set). See the difference? 987 codes at Tequipment means 2pieces set.
Re: Floor mats...
Well, the 987 and 997 interiors are identical, except for the top half of the dashboard.. and, of course, the back area.
987 044 800 94 => all models with a BOSE subwoofer in the passenger footwell (Cayman, 997 Cab and Targa)
987 044 800 93 => all other models (Boxster, 997 Coupé, Cayman w/o BOSE, 997 Cab/Targa w/o BOSE).
Attention RHD drivers, please note your part # will be different.

That is also true. New Winter floor mats are for all 997/987 models. Difference is just between versions for 997 Cabrio with BOSE system.

What do you know, the dealership had them in stock for $72. I got them.
That's not bad at all right?
Do they make them for the rear too, as a set of 4 or just the 2 fronts?
I could definitely see myself using them a lot, tossing them in anytime it rains. Hopefully they're the type that you can just throw on top on the carpeted mats? Hopefully they're more rubber than plastic, heavy enough to stay in place.
Jason - Please post some pics when you get them.

I'll definitely do that Gregg. Did you notice the outline of the Porsche 911 shape in the design of the mats? And scroll up to one of Kreso F1's posts, he posted part numbers for the 4 mat set.
Oh, I got confused when I saw Nabuck Leather. Cool so they come for the rear too, that's even more helpful for me w/ the kids.
Yeah the 911 shape in the mat is very cool looking. I noticed that too straight away.

Here are some quick snaps that Eric (Sunset Imports) took of the rubber mats for me. He'll be shipping it up to me when the front trunk mats arrive. I had my CD changer removed so I had to get the larger trunk mat.
Jason,
I noticed you had a carpeted trunk mat. In my 997 S cab there wasn't any mat. On my Turbo Cab I ordered Leather edged mats. Do you think I will get a trunk mat in my Turbo Cab? If so will it be leather edged?
Why did you remove your CD changer? I actually left that option off my specs because I didn't use it once in my 997 S cab. and figured I could use the space.....Did you happen to notice was it more than a pound or 2?

Re: Floor mats...
This is a bit off topic but here are some photos of mats I ordered from autosupermart. Their made from German Velour (similiar to the stock material and match up well with the rest of the interiors carpet. I ordered 4 mats (the front embroidered red "PORSCHE" and also ordered a rear shelf mat (behind the seats and a front trunk mat (I sent in my stock bottom cover in the front trunk so they could copy it and drew a diagram with the dimensions of the rear cargo area). Both of those were embroidered in red also. Very happy with the color match. It ran $400 plus some change for the entire set. The small mats behind the rear seats I left plain black (too many Porsche logos).
