[QUOTE="haywire, post: 443836, member: 16474"] Well bro, if there's any in UK why would I cross the big pond and ask around in the US? The reason for all this misery (I've been obsessing about this for a few months) is because BMW has stopped production of the RHD E39 rubber mats. In UK no shops carry much stock of their own, genuine parts like these are only available through BMW dealers. And the dealers dont keep them in stock either, the stock come from BMW supplier/warehouse and delivered to dealers twice a day. Its just the way they do business around here. I've called a few major dealers around the country just in case but no one still have them in stock. Maybe tomorrow I'll try to call a few small ones just to try my luck, but even if they have any it would not be more than one or two units in my opinion. For the time being I dont think its possible to do a group buy for this item. I've asked most of the breakers (chop shops) around the country, none have them in stock either. I've also tried breakers on ebay as well but until now still no luck. I even asked one of the ebay traders who got his stock straight from germany to ask his german counterparts, and still waiting for him to get back to me. As of now I'm nearly exhausted all possibilities of where to get them, just waiting on ebay until one comes up for sale. I missed one set that went on sale in March, and regretted not getting it in time. Now you know how long I've been looking for these mats. As I said before only the front one are out of stock, the rear one are still available (I'm buying a set of rear ones for £15 from one ebay seller) If all else fails I'll just buy a set of the Cannon VS front rubber mats, and use it with the genuine BMW rear ones because the rear Cannon one are just plain ugly.
