Got my new car last night - Are there TL-S floor mats?
I got my 08 TL Type S yesterday and it came with regular "TL" mats, should it have come with special TL Type S mats??

Thanks!

Most members use the OEM all weather mats. Work and fit great! It has the TL logo, not the TL-S. Wish it did

Can't have a car without the all weather mats. For me, its an inexpensive upgrade that keeps the car looking nice especcially with these shitty north east winters

I used to live in Pittsburgh and used all weather mats. I live in south Florida though, so aside from some rain in the summer, our weather is pretty awesome.

That's too bad about there being no Type-S mats, would be a nice little detail.

I'm with you - never really been a fan of the rubber mats - it's been out of necessity when I had them.

But it sure helps with rain, mud, beach sand and not to mention spills. Protects the carpeting.........

Congrats on your new car!

All weather floor mats are a really good investment. Especially when your friends tread in all sorts of interesting things from the outside.

I would use all weather mats no matter where I lived. It will just preserve the carpet even longer

Yeah defintely get the all season floor mats. I actually clean the interior about once a month, and when I look at my floormats, I thank myself for getting the all season.

the carpeted floor mats will take the beating that the rubber ones will, so the carpet under the matts is still ok, you can always replace the floor mats....

i do agree, if i lived somewhere where i got alot of rain, snow and sand i would use the all weather as well....here in dallas, i dont really need too....

You mean something like this?

You would need to find an upholestry shop to take your mats apart and have someone embroider the logo to the mat.

Something like that would be a pretty cool detail for the interior, even with black stiching to match the headrests.
