Andy, 
   LUCKY you!!!  You could probably cammand a preminum for that one.  From
what I heard the last three complete floor pans TRF had were shipped to
Australia.  Can you imagine the freight shipping on that one (wonder if they
took advantage of the free shipping?)
Also on the thread of floor pans there are at least three different center
tunnel configurations that I know of, proobably another reason of using
seperate right and left panels, at least these are all the same-
