Default Correct floor mats for '65.

Can anyone tell me what are the correct dealer installed floor mats for a late build 1965? I believe the clear rubber floor mats were available then. Corvette Central sells these and also the same design in black rubber. Are the black ones also period correct ?

Yep, should be clear...but they wont be "clear" for long...they turn a milky color very quickly...just the petroleum by products oozing out. Mine are milky and I'm going to use them in a concours show this weekend.
