There are directions floating around here on how to open an account at one of the free picture hosting sites but if you want, just email me the pics at tobivette@bellsouth.net and I'll put them up...

FWIW, if they're what I think they are, they fit over the door sills:

Are you talking about sill protectors or the carpet protectors that fit in the footwell?
I have the latter in my 87 and I love them  |

I didn't think of those. I guess by his description, that would probably make more sense. I've got them too but only use them when taking this cat or that to the vet to keep as much of their hair as possible off the carpet... |

I've tried the free sites and for some reason they don't work for me? My daughters graduation party is this weekend so I will shoot you some pictures when I get some time to pull them out of the attic. Thanks for the help, Mike |

No need for pics, we now know what they are from your previous post. To answer your original question, they insert in the footwells to protect your carpets from muddy shoes or shedding pets. Who makes them, good question. I got mine used from a member of another forum. I couldn't find them listed on the Ecklers or Mid-America sites. Didn't check the rest of the Corvette accessories sites, though.. |

That's why I wanted to know, so I could put them up for sale and ask a fair price. |

You can find them at Mid America, Davies Corvette Supplies, and a host of other suppliers.
I believe they're asking around 140+/- for a set. I got mine used from another forum member for about $40.00. |
