All Weather Mats and Cargo Tray
In my TLX, I had the Acura all-weather mats and cargo tray.
They were more like vinyl than rubber but, I was OK with them.
This time around, I was planning to spend the extra cash and get WeatherTech floor liners and cargo mat but, they don't have anything yet.
They will let me know when they are available.
What say you?
Better to wait for WeatherTech or get the Acura ones again? The Acura mats seem to be rubber now and have a higher wall and are cheaper. The cargo tray still looks plasticky but, it does fold where it needs to and I appreciate that.
I got a set of WeatherTech Car Coasters for the cupholders. They're quite nice. Even though they are round and our cupholders are not, they adapt.

I just received my 2019 on Saturday and it came with the All Weather mats, but not the cargo tray. The mats are really thick and I would put them up against the Weathertech brand as being just as good. I saw a Cargo Tray in the Service area and almost bought it as it had nice high sides and definitely would keep bags of groceries from falling over, but I had one from my last vehicle that will work for now.

Having owned multiple vehicles over the years with OEM mats and WeatherTechs I'd say if you're willing to spend the money on WTs give a very serious look at 3D Maxpider liners ( https://www.autoanything.com/floor-m...agu-floor-mats ). IMO they look a lot better (so much so that while I usually swap the all weather mats out for carpet mats for the summer these stay in year 'round), fit better and come with a 3 year warranty. They're also thicker than the WTs so should provide a bit more sound deadening.
Like the WTs there's nothing available yet for the '19 RDX.

If you want Acura OEM mats, go to Curry Acura's eBay store.
Link: Acura OEM Mats
As mentioned by several people, WeatherTech and MaxPider mats do not yet exist for the 2019 RDX.

The OEMs on my TLX were sort of plasticky and left a lot of carpet exposed.
The ones for the RDX are a bit more expensive and appear to be way better.
I will probably go with the OEMs as WeatherTech doesn't seem to be in a hurry to produce their version and they have a tendency to price them higher, never discount, and charge too much for shipping.

I have gone back and forth between WeatherTech and OEM Honda/Acura "all-weather" floor mats for years ( decades? ), and I think the latest version of the OEM all-weather mat is the best yet. I don't think I will regret buying them.
I like the OEM folding cargo tray for easy access to the storage cubby. For really sloppy stuff, the continuous raised lip of the WeatherTech cargo tray may be better. I have used both.

WeatherTech told me today that it will be at least 12 weeks before they will have floor liners or cargo liners for the 2019 RDX ready.
I think I'll get the OEM cargo liner now since it folds and has openings for the hooks for the net The WeatherTech won't have those useful features.
I can think about the floor mats in the Fall.

I've had WeatherTech mats on all of my cars, OEM mats are the first thing I replace. That being said, being in a new car market now, I think the OEM all weather mats have come a long way, the mats I saw on GLC and Acura seem like quality stuff.
I guess offshore manufacturing has caught up. I would totally stick with them especially if you can get the dealers to throw them in for free.

Too impatient to wait.
Just ordered cargo tray and cargo net from Curry Acura with free shipping and ordered OEM all-weather mats from another vendor who had a better price ($104.95 + $14.95 shipping).
I'm sure I'll be satisfied with them.

good call, I like the RDX emblem, kind of sick of staring at WeatherTech all these years.

The WeatherTech cargo mat for the '19 RDX had better fold or else no one (or hardly anyone) will buy them. It would suck to have to prop up a solid sheet of rubber, or one-hand it, just to access the great, new under-floor storage, especially the ones in the back. Thanks, but no thanks.

Having said that, the thing is made of relatively thin material, and it is shipped folded over in a box. It just won't hinge and stay neatly folded back like the OEM version.
I have read good things about Husky and Maxliner mats/trays, if you want to keep shopping. But I haven't used those products.

The front mat locks and cargo folding makes WeatherTech a moot option.

Those look really good. thanks for posting pics! I used to switch between the carpets and all weather mats by season, but now I just leave the mats in all of the time. These look much better than the WeatherTechs in wife's truck.

I have the OEM all-weather mats and cargo tray for my '17 and they're excellent. The 17's front and rear passenger mats basically look identical to the pictures of the '19's shown on here...very durable and look great. I highly recommend the OEMs -- Acura nailed them.

OEM are very careful about floor mats under the pedal area after the Toyota unintended acceleration fiasco.

For me it's as much esthetics as functionality. The 3D Maxpiders look better than many carpet mats and, IMO, better than any other all weather mats.

You would have a stronger case if you start talking about pricing, if they're considerably cheaper. (I only saw Jeep in the drop down for '19 models at that link you posted.)

Check the reviews on the AutoAnything.com link I provided - totally different.

The reviews for a Honda Accord, for example, are excellent.
Perhaps people who buy Fiat 500Ls are as odd as Fiat 500Ls?
They do look nice but, I'm happy with the OEMs. Got them for $104.95 on eBay.

I’ve dealt with Curry for years. They offer quick service at good prices compared to Acura dealerships. OEM accessories are usually the best option, albeit not the cheapest. Park Acura also sells on eBay. They are about the same in pricing. Most people don’t know it, but you can negotiate prices with sellers on eBay. I’ve done it a couple times when buying Acura accessories from the two dealerships.

wow. I'm dumb. Pretty new to the car world, so I didn't realize you can get these things so much cheaper from a third party (and they are 100% legit and not even knockoffs!). I regret buying the rear tray, all weather mats and rear seat cover from my dealer! Could of saved some coin! Ah well. Nice to know I can pick up other accessories online if needed down the road. Thanks for the link!
