I paid $68 for mine at the dealer. The OEM ones are kind of thin though.

i have the black ones with the MB logo on them. Compared to my vw or audi monster mats, these are not as good.

I have an extra set of all-weather floor mat I could part, I had it in my c230 coupe and they gave me a new one when I bought my c240, never checked if it's the same size but looks pretty much the same, If you're interested let me know...

I have seen the Clear floor mats (Exact Mats) They are good mats but look extremely cheap and ugly. Especially in a MB!

I had the MB all season floor mats in my car since day one. They're holding up well. As others have noted, you'll pay about $70 at a dealer or MBUSA.

I would suggest a dealer just so you can actually handle them. If you feel that they are too thin, I would recommend MacNiel Weathertech floor mats. I've used them in other cars with very good results.

I would highly recommend against the MB OEM floor mats. I bought a set with my car and I replaced them with Weathertech rubber floor mats 2 weeks later.

The MB OEM mats are extremely thin, they don't hold much water/snow/dirt, and the bottoms of them are a slick vinyl material causing them to slide around a lot. MB's solution to this problem was to include metal clasps that you attach to the mats and then pin into your carpet. In short, they're overpriced crap.

On the other hand, I was more than happy with the Weathertech mats. My only complaint was that the black mats have that annoying red line around the outside, but once you put the mats in the car the line is so small you easily forget about it.

Do they look like any of them on this thread https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...threadid=6512? (Thanks Session)

Or this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEBWA%3AIT (thanks jigga)

Right now I have some generic mats from Pep boys. They are pretty good. But I am an OEM freak sometimes and want everything to say MB on it for some reason! I even paid 60 bucks for that Windshield Sunshade protectant.

Btw. Do you guys replace your carpet mats or you just lay rubber mats on top of the carpet ones?

Sorry about your C problems, You are suffering way too much
