I am ordering a new carpet for my '89 stang since I am doing the passenger-side floor-pan, I am getting black carpet from 50resto, but was wondering if these floor mats would fit in my FOX: http://secure.50resto.com/product1.cfm?SID=1&Product_ID=1584&Category_ID=1128, They are meant for a '94-'04 mustang but they are so nice and was wondering if they will fit in my stang.

They might fit ok. I can't exactly go check at the moment because my cars are in two different places though.

I use those mats in my car, except mine don't have the logos. They fit nice, I think the only difference between the sn95 and fox mats are the hole for the mat retaining hook.

I worked at a detail shop, all the old mats came out of the cars so I took mine out of a 2000 GT vert 
Anyhow its a metal hole, its not too big and it doesn't hurt anything. If you really want to you could install the hook into the carpet and make it functional. I don't have any pics of them though.

What does the hook really do for it? What do you mean by functional? I thought you just take the mat put it in and thats that. Do you mean that the hook keeps it in place?

On the newer cars there is a plastic hook that snaps into a metal hole in the carpet, then loops through the floormat to keep it from sliding foreward. I have never had a problem with my floormats moving at all without the hook though.

I understand you now. The stock floor mats that I have in the stang have never given me a problem with moving or anything like that, they just seem to stay in place. So then I guess I won't get the hook for it if I buy those floor mats. Did you cover up the holes in the floor mats in your stang? or do you just let the holes be shown?

That is a far
