I still have the original carpet ones and desperately looking to replace them. carstudio.in has the universal kagu for about 2.8k but I'm not sure if they are really that good a fit. Any ideas? please:

Waiting for my salary, will call them up and check out. Universal mats are available off the shelf, I believe.

A.K is the distributor for Chennai, however the mats were cheaper at Jewaji.

Hi thenomad,

Thanks for the information, Visited A.K.International, GP Road. First one guy told me they are not dealing with 3D Kagu mats now and another guy said he have one in stock but that is black in color, bought it for Rs2500, Jewajee quoted 4700 for Beige and Black.

Regards,

rashv

@rashv - is that a 3D or 4D. Yesterday went to jeewajee and he said they got both 3D costing 2.5k n 3D 4.5k.

Saw both the material - there is a huge difference. 'cos he got only beige now - asked him to get black.

But if u got black 3D kagu at 2.5k that's a killing...

Also, not sure the one for jazz is still perfect fit ? Anyoe tried recently ?

Couple of questions:

1. If I am looking for 3D mats with a anti-slipping Velcro at the bottom - would it be a Kagu mat or Royal or Maxpider? Or would I get the Velcro in both? Pretty confused here.

2. Any shops in Chennai that still sell them? I am looking to pick a set for my Figo. A.K International are no longer selling these. Most of the shops in GP Road only had the cheaper fakes (KII / Rockstar et al).

TIA

I got mine from Privilege Moto Mall in Anna Salai.

If I remember correctly, some have no velcro, some have a bit, and some have it all over, and mine (Maxpider) have it all over. I think that Kagu is the name of the material, although I have never heard it in any other context.

After having used them for a few months, I'd say stay away from them.

I bought Universal ones for my Fiesta and now, they are torn at the area where I rest my heel while driving. The front passenger side mat has kind of lost its 3D shape at one of the edges due to crease, or so it seems. I'll try to post pictures for reference when I get the time.

I certainly did not expect this after having paid 3500 rupees for JUST floor mats.

All I got were substandard mats with nothing but a "3D effect".

Hi guys. Bought my 3D Kagu Maxpider Mats for 5.2k for my Polo 1.6. The mats are of excellent quality but I really need to see their durability as the mats have been in my car since a month only and so far I do not see any signs of wear till date.

Thanks for the suggestion Thad. Visited PMM this evening and unfortunately, it appears that the Maxpider variant is not made for the Figo. Only the regular 3D mats. Were quoted for Rs.5300/-

Any ideas if I can buy velcro strips separately and attach them to the bottom of these mats myself? Just do not want to take a chance and let the driver-side mat slip and jam the pedals, as reported elsewhere in TBHP. Or am I too paranoid?

No they are not at all slippery. Some of the pros:
1. The overall colour and appearance gels with every car with beige interiors. They look absolutely fab.
2. Fit and finish is perfect.

Hello Mohit,

I was hunting for a floor mat set for my Innova. Found your post.
Did a search and found this -

Are you also using the same stuff? In your pictures it didnt appear to be 3D moulded. The pictures from their website looks 3D moulded.

Also, I guess its about a year since you installed them, how is the quality and durability?

Any suggestions on going for this?

Hey these are the same mats that I have in my car. I have the Indus. These mats are basically available in 3 different categories. But they have stopped making the ones I have. The reason according to Sai mag wheel's owner is that the demand for the cheaper variant is more and people are not interested in the top of the lines ones that I have. So they have stopped getting them.

If you can get the ones that I have then go ahead with them. The fit is great and even after an year they are good as new. And my car is used every day of the week, even rented out to relatives for there outstation trips.

But the other 2 categories. I didn't like them and they felt cheap. So in that case I would recommend you to go for 3D Kagu mats or stick to the elegant mats.

From the pics above, it seems they have the Indus. I would definitely recommend them. But the prices look slightly high. I got mine for Rs 3500 approx ( don't remember the exact amount now).

Thanks, Mohit!

They have indicated that these are the INDUS Premium top of the line ones. But I couldnt relate the pics on the website to the one you posted. Both looked different. I have sent a mail to them to confirm. Not got any response yet. Price quoted is 4100/-, little higher, but if its worth it in terms of looks, fit and finish, I will go for it.

Just waiting for someone to confirm :)
