The Auto Choice PM23R is the four-piece black velour car mat set with a red trim bound around every mat, so the footwells finally match the rest of the car. The driver's mat carries a reinforced heel pad, because that is the one spot every carpet mat wears through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed bound edge on all four mats — picks up red interior detailing without looking like an aftermarket add-on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReinforced heel pad on the driver's mat takes the scuffing that kills a plain mat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour pieces: two front, two rear, covering every footwell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-slip backing keeps the driver's mat away from the pedals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVelour pile catches grit and wet before it reaches the car's own carpet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUniversal fit, sized to suit most cars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHot hatches and anything with a sporty trim: Fiesta and Focus ST, Golf GTI with the tartan, Clio RS, MINI Cooper, Type R, or any car with red stitching or red trim pieces.
