Yes, the side shift / center shift gearboxes require different 
profiles.  The rubber Ammco mats have the two profiles molded in and you 
cut the excess rubber off to fit your car.

        <p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,  I am thinking of buying some floor
          mats for my side-shifter BT7 to save the wear and tear on the
          original Karvel carpet I have.   Several suppliers sell a pair
          of mats  that are described as â??embroideredâ?? with the Healey
          wings and they are listed as fitting all 3000s from â??59 to
          â??67.  I thought the side-shift and centre shift gearbox
          tunnels were different and had a different profile to the
          carpets, so I donâ??t see how these mats will fit all 3000s.
           Anyone have any experience with them in side-shifter?  The
          ones Moss sell seem a little different and they say they fit
          only â??62 to â??67 cars, which would be the centre shift cars. 
           More generally, anyone recommend some inexpensive <u>fitted</u>
          mats to go over the carpet?  Many thanks.<o:p></o:p></p>
