Volvo 480 Carpet Mat Set

Cleaned up the garage and found some parts you want to sell? Or are you looking for that one part? You can advertise or request just about anything that has to do with the Volvo 480 in here: brochures, towing-hooks, antenna's, etc etc...

Volvo 480 Carpet Mat Set

Post by Jeremy Goad » Mon Feb 02, 2004 12:00 pm

Hi there folks! New member Jezz here from Hampshire UK, just joined up!
Do any of you know where I can get a NEW GREY carpet mat set for my '93 480 Limited Edition?? I went to the Volvo dealership and they quoted me over £100 for them!! I said "You must be joking!!" :lol: So anyone got any for a good price, say £10-25, I would be grateful, as mine are now dirty and brown after 11 years in the car. Thanks!! GoadJezza74@aol.com

You could try cleaning them with the tips in this similar topic thread:

Seems to suggest making a paste of water and washing machine powder, scribbing it in well, leaving for a while then rinsing with a pressurewasher...

Worth a try...

I think that's a great idea. worked very well on my mats. BUT make sure you use a brush that is not too hard or you might track the carpet.
