Floor Mats & Model Years?

Does anyone know if the rubber All Season Floor Mats from the 2013-2018 RDX models will fit the 2010-2012 RDX models?
Thanks.

And were the Acura mats better or worse than the WeatherTechs?

The Acura all weather mats don't protect as well as weathertech if you live in the snow belt. The Acura brand don't have high walls to contain the mess and they are designed to work with light snow or light rain conditions at most. I keep my Acura all weather mats in all year in the southwest because I have the issue with sticky road tar, sand, gum, goatheads, etc... in the summer heat. WeatherTech would be overkill for me.

I run WT in the front (snow belt for sure) and Acura in the rear/trunk.

Gotcha. I'm in South Carolina, so we hardly ever get snow, but we get rain once or twice a week. I have the 2011 model and have tried to order the Acura All Weather mats from a few different dealers and they all say they are unavailable and on backorder. But I can find the 2013+ mats, no problem, but I'm wondering if they would even fit.

visually they are not a match, for example the narrow part in the middle/back of later years is quite wider than the apparent space available in the first years...for driver the newer part under the pedals seems wider and any unwanted crease there might interfere with the controls...
having said that, it takes just a few seconds to determine if acceptable to you... find a used 2nd gen for a test fit and let us know

Thanks for that info! I thought it was a long shot but worth a try.

I found a used set of the 2nd gen OEM mats for $65 + shipping from across the state. None locally though. I'd hate to spend that and then them not even work.

I guess since I can't find any of the 08P13-STK-220B OEM - Taupe Mats, and Husky doesn't make any X-act Contours to fit, the ONLY option is the WeatherTechs.

You can't go wrong with the WeatherTech floor mats. Just peel their stupid logo off

I have WT front and back, and in snow belt. I love the WT in front and hate the WT in back. In the back the edges don't sit flush against the carpet and my passengers seem to constantly step on them making them even worse. I would try what feral is doing.

I have WeatherTech in the front, back seats and the rear. I clean mine really well with Simple Green and after they dry I put on a coat of Mop & Glo to give them a nice, satin finish with no slickness.

I love them and would recommend them to anyone.
