Default Clear mats to protect beige carpets

Hey guys,

Well i have the havanna sand beige interior, it looks beutifull, but its a pain in the *** to keep clean. I have been looking around for some nice clear mats or something to keep my original beige carpets from becoming dirthy, while maintaining its beauty. Anyone have any suggestions? Does porsche make any clear mats?

Also anyone know a good carpet cleaner that can be used in the car and be able to take off all the dirt stains and such?

I have never seen clear Porsche mats in any of the Tequipment catalogs (I ended up buying the black rubber mats from Porsche and didn't bother with the carpeted ones).

For spot removal, try Spot Shot (blue can with orange top); works well on light stains.

The product I use for carpet and fabric cleaning is Now, it works very well.

The carpeted Porsche mats are available to match the interior. Keep 'em clean, then toss 'em when they don't look good enough.

Otherwise purchase the clear mat / runner material, with studs on the bottom, then trim it to fit.

The black rubber mats work well- had them delivered with the car, and the interior looks brand new, even with 8 months of my wife and son riding around in it.

I've seen some clear mats for the Cayenne in the ebay a while ago, give it a try.

In the UK we have car accessory shops called "Halfords'. They're everywhere and retail all manner of car bits, audio, cycles etc. They sell standard (1 shape) clear mats for front and back. My beige interior was starting to get dirty too so I got a pair of fronts. They fit ok, look a bit shiny but generally do the job very well.
