I did something similar on the '95. My BMW dealership was using clear plastic floor mats for its used cars which were adhesive on the back. I just cut out a piece of that material and stuck it on the carpet where my foot would tend to wear it. Great solution if you have not got much wear to begin with. I believe that kind of adhesive clear plastic material is also sold at home improvement stores as a carpet protector, but usually in large rolls. Anyone who is a remodeling contractor would have some. BTW, I also put some to the right of the accelerator pedal when my foot tends to wear the carpet. Worked great, no wear.--Bob
