I had WeatherTech mats in my previous cars and all were excellent....they are very durable, easy to keep clean and are a good value.

They are legit. A very well respected company. Very prominant in the industry.

I have not had the Weathertech mats, but did get the Hexomat mats for the 09 TL AWD. They fit well and I really like the pattern. Had these in my old car and they did a great job holding water/slush on the mat and they are a bit more subtle looking than many mats. Just my 2 cents on another option.

I think he means the Acura All-weather mats. These are rubber and have a nice "TL" embossed on them.

Is it me or does anyone else prefer the OEM equivelant to an aftermarket item if they are both roughly the same? I wouldn't put weathertech in my car unless there were no more factory mats available. I like to get every OEM accessory there is first

Oups my mistake. I also have the rubber All weather mats. Haven't tried them yet since i got my car for about 2 months. But from what i see they won't be able to hold a large amount of water, slush or snow.

Ditto - They offer more coverage and collect so much crap from your shoes. Consider it an investment in your car's interior.

I have WeatherTech mats in my Subaru, which sees a lot of inclement weather duty, and they are excellent. Every winter they get covered in all kinds of snow and mud and other gunk from ski resorts and they're holding up great after many years of use. Definitely a nice floor saver

Ordered them for my TSX... they are expensive, but of excellent quality (e.g. fit, materials). Well worth the cost in my humble opinion.

Agree wholeheartedly with the above comment. They have been around for years, and every month have 4 to 5 page ads in the major american car magazines (e.g. Motor Trend, Car & Driver, etc.).

PS - would highly recommend you get the floor liners as opposed to floor mats.
