I have one you can have for cost of postage.

BUT it has been modified where I needed to relocate the gear stick bellows to suit my type 9. So a patch of the carpet was cut and relocated.

Will try and find pic of it as it was before I swapped to carbon - tbh although it was difficult to spot the join once installed, it was not a professional job by any means!

If you want a pristine one, it's no good.

Found a pic

EDIT - it's also distinctly possible that it's been butchered even since then - so let me look in the garage before you say yes!

Worth being aware there are different tunnel widths too, most cars have had the wider tunnel for MT75 gearboxes for years, even though the owners have frequently fitted Type 9's from new, the bigger tunnel gave more room to fit the engine further back etc.

Earlier cars especially, have the narrower tunnel suitable for the original four speed box and the later Type 9 5 speed.

Worth measuring the width of the tunnel top in a few places to compare before buying anything.

I'll be in the cave tomorrow so can dig it out and see what butchery has been wrought! Wish my memory was better...

I have a tunnel carpet that has never been fitted. I've just got the dust off and given it a hoover, there are no rips, moths and no handbrake or gear holes. I cannot be sure what it was bought for.   If you want  it £10 to cover postage.  

Any reply to mwstanford@aol.com.

Regards,

 

Martin
