300SD floor mats

I just detailed my car... and man is my floor mats shabby! I would replace then if I knew where I could buy new ones. The ones in my car a dark brown which matched my carpet perfectly and they say 300SD on them... how cool is that. I know they are probably something ordered with the car when I was new... but who sells replacements today? I was thinking about steam cleaning them, and then have the edges re-stitched... that would make them look good for a few years, but I think they would fall apart completely a few years down the road and I don't think its worth the time and effort to re-stitch them for a only a few years.

I have bought a couple sets from a seller on ebay (hambmw). They are great and OEM (have the MB part sticker right on packaging). Some her on the forum have said they are cheaper at the dealer, I did not find this to be true even with the shipping involved from the seller. (has great feedback also)

Try washing the old ones in the washing machine. Since you've got nothing to loose, why not go for it? Go all out with pretreatment and mega chemicals. You may have to run them through a few times. Once they're clean, dry them in the dryer on low heat. The first time my wife did it I was shocked how well they came out.

I have washed my mats in the washer also. I was amazed how clean they got. But it will not take out any mildew stains or change the color back to Palomino from pink.

I believe www.performanceproducts4benz.com carries the type of floor mats you mentioned.
