Hi All,
Living in the Pacific Northwest, I always install rubber mats in all of my Porsches (either OEM or 3rd party like Weathertech) because not only does it keep the car clean and easy to maintain, but I like the fact that I am avoiding the wear-n-tear on the original carpet mats.
After my recent acquisition of an air-cooled 911 ('86 Carrera) I thought it would be a no-brainer and do exactly the same, however, I am unable to find model-specific rubber mats anywhere. I have found generic (multi-vehicle) mats which I can modify to size, but nothing that was designed for the air-cooled 911.
This leads me to this forum - am I just a poor-googler, or are there really no rubber mats available? What do you guys use?

I ordered a set on-line from Auto Anything. I don't remember the brand off hand but they were sort of honey combed looking. They fit and worked great in our '85 coupe(we live in a sandy area). Sorry I can't remember exactly what brand.

Thanks Hermich, they look great. Now I need to decide between the 'NorthRidge' style versus the 'RubberTite' style:
