Floor mats!

I noticed my floor mats are getting pretty beat up even though I've only had the car since Nov 07, 17k miles later. I decided to purchase a new set, however I'd like to keep them a bit longer.

I'm interested in getting the winter weather mats from Acura, and while surfing eBay, I found these:

Anyone have any opinions on keeping their stock mats in good condition?

I bought the weatherTech digital fit floor mats. These things are great. I can't compare them to the OEM all weather floor mats but these fit great, also all the water or snow wont run onto the carpet.

I've got the OEM all-weather mats but like how those cover the hump in the rear. Much better fitment

Hey when you guys throw on the all weather floor mats, do you guys leave the regular carpeted floor mats on the bottom and throw the all weather mats on top? Or just take the carpeted ones out? Or it shouldn't matter?

PEACE!

Shouldn't matter. I used my old TL mats in my 87 Legend.

I took mine out. No point having the all weather mats rubbing on the OEM mats. I have a thing for keeping OEM floor mats that have the car's logo on them. Maybe because I once made $300 on a CRX floor mat. It's surprising how much people will pay for small details to get a car back to showroom stock.

Sweet, I took mine out too. Just don't know why people leave the carpeted ones underneath it still. Oh well.

PEACE!

If you layer them and by chance moisture gets under the winter ones then your going to have issues because it will not dry easily ..

Thank You very much for posting those pics. I've been debating on whether to get the Weathertech digital for weeks, after my girlfriend spilled bleach on the rear carpers, I just wasnt sure if the damage would be covered, but because of your pics, I just placed an order.
Big to you!
