WeatherTech Floor liner vs. OEM All season Floor mat

I need to get a set of rubber mats but im not sure which one to go with.

Anyone using WeatherTech FloorLine DigitalFit??? Seems to be much more form fitting then the OEM rubber mats. Also a bit cheaper ($99 vs. $105)

Any feedback, pros, cons, PICS, would be greatly appreciated!!!

I have the camel interior, will be be getting black mats. Just need to figure out which one!

I have had mine in the car since we have bought them on top of the carpet floor mats, no problems with fitment as far as i can see.

those are nice, it looks like it covers the entire floor area. More than the OEM mats.

I have OEM ones.

That being said, here's a pretty good discussion to look at:

the weathertech floor liners are front row only, you have to take into concideration you have to pay for rears also

I have floorliner fronts and oem rears lol

they indeed fit better, it even covers the dead pedal

Go to Costco and pick up a set for $19.99. It has been fantastic in my 08 base with tan interior. I had to trim a little for the driver mat but that took about 1 min.

Thats exactly what i did, but its not very clean looking.. and the cut out i made doesn't capture dirt or snow and wasn't so effective. most of the crap seeps right into the carpet.

I just recently had the carpets cleaned and looks almost brand new, I want something to help keep it that way.

Something thats clean, looks nice and will do the job.

The thing that drove me away from the factory is that I have a Taupe interrior, and the mats are either black or tan. I guess the black would be ok, but I rather a gray floor mat. I just bought these off of eBay:

I'll let you know how the fitment is. PS, that price was for front and rears.

The floor liners certainly cover more than the mats I ordered, but they're also double the price. I'm just looking for something that covers the same area as my factory mats.

Estimated delivery is October 29th. Pics will be up then.
