I went to Walmart and purchased the THIN..see thru vinyl mats and my Yaris Floormats are well protected. I even put two small hole in the THIN vinyl mats and hooked them on the hooks where the factory Yaris Mats are attached..

I once put these THIN vinyl mats in the washing machine...and hung them to dry..work great...cheap and offer full protection

Really? Great I get NO SNOW in Puerto Rico and my THIN mats from Walmart are in Mint condition and have the age of the car 2 years and 15,303 miles

I honestly don't know why so many people put floormats on floormats. Just put them in the washing machine with some oxyclean every 6 months and they come out looking brand new. Once they get worn in a few years jsut replace them. They cost about 60 bucks. All these fany floor mats cost more than that. So your using a floormat to protect your floor mat and its more inspesive than the floor mat your protecting?!?

Its just like those clear plastic 3m paint protection. They cost hundreds of dollars while a front bumper paint job cost the same if not cheaper. So in 5 years or so once you got a bunch of nicks on your bumper or scratchs. Just get it repainted.

How did they fit. I looked them up and i am thinking what your thinking now =). But mainly since i spilled motor oil all over both my floor mats. Dont ask how it happend.

Tons of scrubbing and simple green and washing in the washing machine with tons of detergent and oxyclean still couldnt get the stains out.

used for 2 months, went to Canada to get, as the U.S. does not import them. If interested, call me 317-230-8239. Selling for $60, paid $105 when I bought them. They are great quality, I just sold my Yaris to get a bigger car since we had to turn in our lease truck. Damm, I miss 43mpg! :)

I live about 148 miles from Castlegar, BC. Drove up there this morning and picked up a set of the OEM Toyota all season rubber mats....these things are AWESOME!!!! I don't understand why they don't have them in the US, since here in Washington we are almost required to get the "cold weather package". Worth every penny in gas ($20) to go and get them. The border patrol going into Canada was a little bit of an a$$, but oh well!!!

So...the best all-weather mats for a 3 door?
I'm thinking...Lloyds. Weathertech said only sedan when I called this week.


I had to return the WallyWorld mats...their most expensive ($15.99 for the fronts), after 90 days because the ribs were worn thru to nothing. Ok, so maybe the mats don't have to outlast the car, can they just last a few years? Is that asking sooo much?

They fit ok. Ya kinda gotta tuck the driver side on under the seat so it doesnt mess with your clutch and brake pedal much. But hey, thats the price i pay for good looks. But ya main complaint is they are too big but they are holding up well so far, just make sure u dont lettem interfere with ur pedals!

Your lucky it did not snow, some of the passes there get snow in june LOL.

Do you know what salt does to carpet? I will post a pic of what happens after a long winter to the floormats. They are completeley destroyed by salt lol. No amount of oxyclean will fix them either, which is why if you get a rubber mat, it will protect the carpet from salt/sand for the most part.

[428CobraJet]

salt...hmmmm, I'm a little South for that. But yesterday, I was at a demolition derby out in the sticks. Smarter minds might say I shouldn't have been there, but there was cow sh#$ everywhere in the spectator parking.

I'd rather hose it off than get it in the carpet.

Oh yeah, the spectators were the reason I was going, btw. Just what you'd think. I got my money's worth.

Instead of spending $100 on line, I just got back from AutoZone with some really THIN ones...but at least the ridges won't wear thru (it don't got none). Really thin. $12 for 4.

I just can't imagine spending that much money on a set of floor mats. In most cases you wouldn't spend that much to recarpet the entire car.

I've got a set of 4 all season mats from wal-mart and believe or not, it cost me about $30.00. They're thick and very good quality. I have them for about a year now. They have the edge so you can trim it to fit. 5* mats!
