@AMagg - thanks for the info on these mats. Based on reading about them here I might get some myself. Does the driver side mat provide some coverage of the foot rest or dead pedal area?

Yup! You can tell by the picture that I posted, it covers about 80-90% of the foot rest area, which I wasn't expecting. It was a nice surprise. It's also much longer than the OEMs so you don't have to worry about getting mud and snow around the pedal area.

These mats will make your interior look SO awesome.
 
Oh, and when I said they 'snap' in, there is no open slot like other mats. This way you won't get any stray water/mud at the clip.

Yes, sadly there are only the 'tread lightly' logos on amazon which is where I got mine. Paid about $140 all together. Front pair came from CSEOFFROAD and back set from AutoCare Depot
 
Awesome, thanks again the info AMagg. I noticed they also make a cargo liner which I didn't see on Amazon, but is available direct at the CSE Offroad website for $70.88
 
Here is the drivers mat.See how warped it is?!?! Its like it shrunk 3 sizes too small.Its the correct mat for the correct vehicle and i do NOT have the oem floor mats below them.

That's looks like someone chewed on it... I have had my husky liners for 2 years / 23,000 miles on them and they look now where nearly as warped as yours.

You may have gotten a bad batch... Mine are a little warped but manageable and can be put back to place. And your right I only effects to drivers side all the other liners are great. Weird...

i even tried heating them up and manipulating them back into shape but it didnt work.They have just shrunk too much.May just buy a pair of rugged ridge mats.
 
Anybody have a "good" story to tell about the Weathertechs?

I've got a set for the front x-mas wrapped in the bedroom...:confused:

I thought they were the best ones available but these Rugged Ridge ones look pretty damn perfect!

I had the weathertechs in my f150. They were very good.I used them for 6 years and when i sold my truck,the floor underneath the mats looked just as new as the day it came off the assembly line.However when i did get my mats,the passenger side was a "hair" bit warped.I was able to heat it up to contour the floor correctly.I actually took them out before i sold the truck and they are sitting in the garage as we speak.

One other thing,when i needed mats for my Pat,all i kept hearing was how good the Husky Mats were compared to the Weathertechs but as you can see from my predicament that this is totally untrue.However i did read that alot of people dont buy the Weathertechs because- 1. They cost more and 2. they dont cover the entire footrest that lies to the left of the brake pedal and some were afraid that water/snow would still drip over the mats and down into the floor pans.If i could do it over again i would have purchased the weathertechs but after seeing the photos of the installed Rugged Ridge mats,i think ill go that route.
 
What a useful thread - I just ordered a front and rear set of the Rugged Ridge/Tread Lightly mats last night...my first upgrade! I am not counting the locking gas cap, for the record.
 
I've got the weather tech liners in now for about 8 months, love them.

I had purchased the husky rear liner and hated it. It was flimsy and it would close in the rear hatch when I shut the door. Promptly returned it and bought the OEM Jeep liner. When am I going to have 2 inches of water in the back of my car anyways?
