Rick's are a fairly new addition to his range, Muz has been producing his for a long time now.

I dont know of anyone with Rick's, and I've never seen them either so it is impossible to draw an unbiased comparison.

I'm sure both Muz and Rick will sell the benefits as they see them of their own products

It's conveniently easy for vendors to tell you their own products are the best. The best thing to do is research the board and see what customers have to say.

Then if you have any specific product related questions I'm happy to be contacted.

I inquired about Rick's mats fitting RHD cars and the answer I got back was far from conclusive!

I was asked to send over some photo's of the 2 footwells and have not managed to get around to it yet.

ian has a good point, I think Rick is still working on making RHD mats. Stratocaster - one of the guys from Rick's was asking for some pics of RHD mats so they could work on them

I bought some second hand Muz mats from MattRS he'd had them about 18 months minimum he did company car mileage.
They are in fantastic condition for their age considering were they live. I'll be doing my best to keep them that way, have the stock mats on top while the roads are so dirty.
They're also huge, go right under the seat and cover the hump (there's a name for the hump I can't recall it and it's too late) really well fitted.
They're black with red trim, which quietens the Red carpet quite a lot, less pimp mobile for me. Can't wait to try the shorter gear shift which is a Ricks (see if it helps me not pick 2nd gear doing 70?)

I can't speak for Ricks mats and I'm not trying to, but the Muz ones I'm impressed with.

important thing in my mind is to get mats that cover the bar running across as passengers always lean their feet on it and it causes a lot of wear
