I'm looking for (1) 2012 Yaris Passenger car mat brand new(not the rubber mat). If anyone knows where I can buy for $20.xx please send me the direction. I spoke to my Toyota dealer and they can only sell in a set of (4).

I just spent $180 for mine when I bought my new 5 door LE and you want one for $20?

Yes, because I lost one.
You had spent $180 for the four mats when you bought the car, yikes !

good luck.
wait till there are crashed 3rd gen, then you prob could find one for cheap at the scrapyard.
edit: nevermind, you want brand new.. I wish you luck.

My mats came with the car...Yeah, they're an expensive option (rip-off) in my humble opinion. I got a full set of WeatherTech's - been thinking of selling my original set on eBay. They're in a box in the basement now, along with 2 of the 4 headrests.
There are sets on eBay now for 83, 94, 99...78 dollars including the shipping. You have to look around - you MAY find a single one, but all I've seen are the sets, new & used. I know the 3rd gen. front mats say 'Yaris' on them. There are sneaky descriptions with OEM in the title, and 14.99 for a set.
I should have asked my sales guy if he would keep the mats when I bought the car and knock another 100 bucks off the price of the car...

Yougojay - I'll just have to search for one, hopefully I find.

Yes, they are an overpriced option, but I didn't feel like arguing to remove them.

All because I forgot it, #$%#$ when I took it out of the car.

after continually cleaning all the crud....dirt, salt, mud, snow.....too many times this winter, I am calling weather tech tomorrow and getting the front digital fit liners. it will be worth it. they say its only for auto yaris, but I see no difference in the floor well and no way they could interfere with the clutch being pushed in.

I didn't think of it until today, If I had a year ago, I would have asked...but not argued, of course. They are one of those options they always order for cars for their lots. I'll put them on eBay for 89.95 FREE SHIPPING...may take awhile, may not. We'll see...

YES, I agree - they fit completely FLUSH to the ground...I haven't seen my carpeting in almost a year! I agree completely they would fit a manual, why in the heck would Toyota change the configuration of the shift console / floor well between the transmissions. No way, would just add cost to the car.
You will love the WeatherTech mats, sure they're a bit expensive but they serve their purpose WELL. Search for them here, I've already uploaded pics.

I ordered them this morning on the phone (to get AAA discount). first the woman told me "we don't recommend these for the manual because the clutch may get stuck." I suppose that is just liability CYA talk, especially when talking floor mats and Toyota. when I said I would order them anyway she stated they weren't going to fit properly on the floor. as far as I can tell the floor wells are identical in the auto and manual. if they fit as close to the floor as they appear, I cant see the clutch being an issue.
I checked some corolla forums where the digital fit say only for auto, and manual buyers had no issue. will take pics when I get them.

I actually remembered to LOOK when I went up to the store this morning, it looks fine. Will go snap a photo now and up-load it in a little while :thumbsup:
OK, Here ya go - Please pardon the dust-like debris on the mat and the dirt on the brake pedal, I am truly ashamed

Yes, Post a photo!
Looks like a clutch pedal should miss the edge of the mat. I hope it's GOOD to go as these are a nice addition to any vehicle. Considering a set of OEM floor mats (4) are another 200 bucks tacked on to the sticker price - I'd much rather have these.
Especially for drivers with nasty winters, these seem like a winner.
Back when my dad had his Chevy dealership, I had demo Camaros for quite awhile. They were always ordered with vinyl floor mat sets. I would put plastic over the floor and cut & cover that with some old carpeting I'd find wherever...
It kept the carpet perfect for the person who would eventually buy the car. :w00t:

thanks for the close up pic. unless the bottom of the clutch pedal hits exactly at the top edge of the liner, it should be no issue....unless the dead pedal area is a different size in the manual. I cant see Toyota doing that on a car they were trying to build as inexpensively as possible.

Exactly, Just wait and see, I am sure it will work out fine :thumbsup:

ok. got them already. ordered Saturday morning. thats pretty quick(excuse the dirt above the mat. I still have some cleaning to do). . fit is quite fine. I have a homemade dead pedal. since it doesn't interfere with the fit much, if at all, im leaving it since it extends farther up where I want it. the clutch pedal indeed hits right where the top of the liner is. however, there is a curvature of the metal on the pedal that hits the top of the liner such that there is nothing to catch on the liner. it shouldn't ever actually get stuck on the liner. time will tell if the top of the liner will get worn from the clutch pedal hitting it.

You got those fast & thanks for posting the photo - Looks like you'll be good.
Also, looks like the HM dead pedal fits fine under the mat, I'd leave it in. You like them? I hope so!

The mats don't effect the pedal ? The areas the mat covers is where I get salt, which would mean no more cleaning salt. I should get while my carpets are still in good condition. Even though they are pricy, there better then replacing my lost Yaris Mat, which I'm still hunting for :)

. You like them? I hope so! I have no regret. they look and fit great and they will keep virtually all the dirt/mud/salt contained.

I can feel the clutch pedal touching the liner when I push it down, but the liner is thin and fits right against the floor, so the actual clutch operation is not affected. I got so much salt and dirt that the regular mats just didn't catch (nor would the yaris oem all weather mats, which cost ~$80 anyway).

i should add...and I guess I already new this...that the clutch actually engages well before getting to the floor. so today I just quit pushing it that last 1/2 inch where it contacts the liner and I now have zero concern that I will eventually damage that one spot on the liner.

it cant. the brake pedal cant reach it and the liner extends high enough so the gas pedal hits it well below the top edge.

It's not really a 'mat' Yoda - It's technically a liner, it lines the floor, or well, foot well of the drivers side, passenger side and/or rear seat wells, or floorboards as we used to call them. They have such a perfect fit that they don't even move. You couldn't jam that WeatherTech floor liner up under the pedals if you tried.
