69 polara trunk mat

[Samplingman]

Looks great, what kind of car is that in? Mine has a plaid pattern. Is that a new repro?

Yes, new repro from Layson’s. It is in a 1970 Chrysler 300 convertible, and is a close match to the original herringbone pattern. I have a piece of the original mat and the repro is just as thick and heavy.

So I'm assuming since I can't find it that there is no repro for a 69 Polara non-convertible?

I think the only ones they have left are non-convertible like the one I have.

Here is the plaid design from Layson’s, same heavy rubber that I have. The ad mentions Plymouth, I’m thinking all the C body trunk mats are the same size, but someone else might know for sure.

When I got mine it was not cut for the spare tire, it was usable on all 69s.

cool good to hear, where did you get it from?

@polarnj -- I strongly recommend that you upgrade to carpet as the mat traps moisture. Your trunk pan will thank you. @polara71 can chime in and confirm.

Thanks for the tag. I've been preaching this for 40 years only to be mocked back then. I'm glad to see guys are finally realizing the dangers of trunk mats. It would be nice for a aftermarket source to reproduce trunk carpets.

Not sure if the ones they sell now are cut or not, I got mine in 2015.
