        These guys seem to have a selection:

        I'm partial to the "floor liner" style - this site carries the 
WeatherTech ones.  I have a set of similar Husky Liners in my Golf and they 
are fantastic.
        With regular carpet mats, water and mud eventually just run off 
the mat and onto the carpets.  Particularly a problem in rainy areas like 
Seattle.  The liner style with the high walls all around it holds all that 
crud from getting on the carpets.  Last winter when we had our massive (for 
us) week-long snow fall I literally had 1/4" of muddy water in the Husky 
Liners and my carpets kept clean and dry.
        Pricer than carpet mats, but worth the money if you have lighter 
colored carpets and deal with mud, rain or snow in the winter.
