My OEM floor mats are not holding up very well. I was considering on another thread replacing my exhaust this summer but found out that won't be needed. So, I am looking to find a better quality set of front floor mats...that also look nice. I would appreciate suggestions/photos of the ones you have and like, as well as, the ones you have tried and suggest are ones to avoid. Thanks in advance.

Weathertech floor liners are awesome!

I've been running the fronts for two years. Just ordered a set for the back today. Perfect fit . can't wait to get the rears. Really keeps the dirt/mud/caleche (sp?) In bay .

I love my WeatherTech DigitalFit floor liners. Look great, fit perfectly, and function very well! Haven't tried any others, because I haven't had to. Worth the price.

Thank you for responding, I will check out the WeatherTech mats. Is there a Yarisworld sponsor that sells them? If not, where did you get them?

the digital fit ones are almost twice the cost, but should fit like a glove. the all weather mats aren't custom made so will probably fit well depending on the vehicle.


I notice on their site that the digital fit mats only give the option of the automatic for the yaris. I assume the manual and auto yaris have the exact same floor pattern. I haven't looked at an auto yaris in years, so is the shift console box the same?

Be careful with Weathertech, because in my 2010 hb I could not get the Digital Fit floor mats because my Yaris isn't equipped with the heating vents below the front row seats. Make sure your Yaris is, or else the mats won't fit. So I ordered the WeatherTech All-Weather floor mats, instead. That was my only option. I think it SUCKS WeatherTech couldn't get their act together to make a Digital Fit floor mat for those of us who have a Yaris without the heating vents.....

They should still fit the same with or without the vents.

I went to the link provided by roxy1 and when you are looking up the model etc., they now ask if your Yaris has those lower heater vents. They must have had some issues that caused them to ask this now. Anyhow, they look like something I am interested in. I'll wait and see if anyone else has other mats they really like and go from there.

Because if you have the vents, and you took ones that are made for without vents (if they made them), then you would be blocking the vents. So the digital fit has to fit the Yarii without vents...

Got them in July 2013 for my 2013 L - they are awesome. Got them through Amazon.com - Have the rear liner, also, even though no one has been in the back seat 'cept for me.
I got a few Gray "carpet samples" at a flea market last August, one for a spare. I put one on the drivers side to protect the WeatherTech :iono:
It will be be mint in 15 years when I have 50,000 miles on the car :bellyroll:

You'll love them if you get them. They ARE expensive, but look SO sweet!

In the last photo you can see they have holes for the turn-pins that hold the OEM mats in place, to keep the mats from sliding. Weathertech's have the same holes - the Weathertech's have a perfect fit, they won't budge much at all.
They are 'welled' and will hold a lot of junk in and keep your carpets from getting anything on them. I have the original OEM mats, they are near perfect, I need to sell them on eBay or something.
There is a gas door release lever on the drivers side by the door, the WeatherTech fits around that, too, it's darn perfect precision.
I need to vacuum mine and wipe them off a bit, they are dusty!

I figured that. I just wonder if that option to ID vent or no vent was available when bentjazz ordered his or if he just ordered the wrong ones.

I don't remember seeing an option for with or without the vents. Mine's a 2013 Yaris L, so 3rd Generation...
I did see some decent looking heavy-duty mats at Wal-Mart near me before I took the WeatherTech plunge. I'm going to keep this car for a LONG time, hopefully the rest of my life, so that's the plan...figured I'd get the nicest I could. I love them absolutely NO regrets with the purchase.

Here's a review from Amazon (where I got my mats) in Regards to the 2007 Yaris (which I am sure will work for 2008-2011) (Or whichever years they made the second generation)

Fitment for 2007 Yaris confirmed despite description to the contrary.
By edgyver on February 15, 2014
On the Weather Tech web site, it will ask if your 2007 Toyota Yaris has vents under the front seats. There is no option to even say no. But, our car didn't have them. So, fitment was uncertain. I ordered anyway. I just went out and installed them and they DO fit a car without the vent. Apparently, there is a small raised area of the floor on the rear corner of each mat near the center tunnel of cars with the vent. The mats compensate for that small "hump". On a car without the vent, the mat simply has a raised portion over nothing. It doesn't detract from the looks, fit or functionality one bit. =)

I called WeatherTech again today and asked them about this. They said Digital mats for a Yaris without a heating vent would not work because the mat configuration is different for a Yaris with a heating vent compared to a Yaris without a heating vent.

I called them back again just for the helluvit, and got another rep and he said even without the heating vents, he was 99.9% sure the front mats would work, but the back would not.

So who the hell knows. If the Digital mats do work on a Yaris w/out a heating vent, I'll be pissed because the reason I didn't buy Digital mats to begin with is because when I originally called they told me they wouldn't work. Ugh.

How can I tell if my Yaris has heating vents below the front seats? I do have a very slightly raised area on both the lower right hand/lower left hand corners of both my driver and passenger side. Beyond that, I don't know. Can anyone tell me?
Thank you.

Turns out my Yaris does have heating vents. Talked to a 4th WeatherTech CS person and she told me to look from behind the seat with the seats pulled all the way up, and voila. There the heating vent was. That's what I get for being such a moron. But then again, I was given wrong info about those vents way back when, so....
Guess I'll order the Digital mats....
Anyone want my floor mats?

No problem - they are awesome looking additions to your Yaris.
Went down to the garage to look at the 'vents' that go to the back seat. They definitely clear the rear liner, in other words, the vents stop WAY away from the rear liner.
I will go down tomorrow when it is light and pull the mats and check where the heat vents are and take some photos and give it a good look-over, and VACUUM the car out while I am at it. :headbang:

OK, I just saw your post, didn't realize I was answering the last post on the 1st page..:confused:

My 2013 has the vents, may be that way on all the 3rd Gens. Went back to my order at Amazon, never mentioned in the order with or without vents. They fit perfectly. I need to take them out and vacuum tomorrow, and am going to see if I have the vent 'humps' under there somewhere, just for the heck of it. They gotta run under the carpet somewhere. It's a great idea, I've seen it in other cars, interesting they included the rear seat vents on Toyota's bargain model. Helps heat the back passengers (if ya got any!)
Now if I/we ( I know others have been looking) can only find a set of FOUR OEM MUD FLAPS in the USA, I'd be set..well, except for that rear sway bar!

the digital fit ones are almost twice the cost.

Based on my wifes input, I am starting to come to the conclusion that if I spend the money on these...I will be be suffering from a massive sperm build up to the point of hemorrhaging. (hope i spelled that right) Therefore I will continue the hint of these being a fathers day gift in June..the floor mats that is..If that happens, the floor mats that is, i will post.

:bellyroll:...reminded me of a code acronym among friends when I was in my early twenties, but that was DSB instead of MSB, with the D standing for Dead and the SB being the same and the overall point being the same.
