    Carpet police, please help identify this carpet set

    Hi.
    I dug out what looks like a pair of front floor mat for an early 911, in Haargarn (velour) and leather straps, but I have not seen the style of driver side mat before. I've also never seen the rubber part of the driver side like in the picture. The backing looks like dimpled coir like you would find on the factory floor mats in an early 911. Can you please help identify which year do these floor mats belong to? Thank in advance for all your help.

    I ve seen several ones w the driver rubber on early's, mostly on RoW cars.
    Mine (100% original RoW) does not have it but most 1971 i recall have it.

    Below is what is a 1970T US (not mine), the rubber usually goes over the tunnel (this being another piece.)

    Looks like early S original issue.

    Thanks all. It's the fact that the pedal area cover and the floor mat came in one-piece is what confused me. I've only seen them separated. Also, the ribs on the rubber of this piece is wider apart than the finer ribs on rubber of an original '73E piece I have.

    Oh snap...I hope these floor mats don't belong the '72S I sold about 10 years ago. I could've swear everything that came with the car, including the 4 pieces of floor mats, were picked up by the buyer. I better contact the buyer to see if he's not missing a set of floor mats.
