I think you can get the fixings on their own from a dealer. Try PM'ing Sere Motors on here.
Not sure how well fitted they are into your new mats though. Might have to butcher a little.

mine were 2nd hand and i didnt think i would have any issues. i will see if i can find some 'fixings' or just drill some holes to make the 'hole' oval shaped.

My 03 LCR has the round not oval fittings... not sure whey/when they changed. As I purchased new mats from the dealer they asked which I needed and supplied the correct ones.

just tried to 'modify' my mats with a dril bit to make the round holes oval and the plastic fixings fell apart - they are two piece, top and bottom so if i wanted to change the fixings to the oval one it is possible, just need the part numbers of the oval fixings and then get them from a stealer dealer. does anyone have the oval fixings in thier car? if yes then please can you tell me the part number which will be on the bottom of the fixing.
thanks

Hi Sal,

I have jusgt bought a Leon 05 and ordered my car mats online (neede4u i think)Unfortunately I have the same dilema with oval studs in my Leon but round fixings on the mats sent to me. Did you solve the problem of the oval fittings? I have no idea how to remedy it and i want some mats!!

hi Steve, i think the company may be able to supply you with the correct fixings but i took mine out, (unscrews completely) and i glued some velcro on the bottom and now they dont move at all.
