WeatherTech Logo on Mats

I was going to post this in the Canada section, but I figured people everywhere probably have WeatherTech mats in their 86/FRS/BRZ.

The WeatherTech badges in my mats have fallen off already (bought them in Oct 2014). Just wondering if this is common? The mats themselves are just fine. But when paying $100+ for mats I thought the badge would last at least a season.

Doesn't really bother me much, but just thought it was premature.

That's why I took mine off almost immediately and replaced them with these (used extra strength 3M adhesive to put them on).

Diode Dynamics used to sell them, but I'm not sure if they do anymore. They are aluminum look acrylic and are a perfect fit. Looks OEM.

Mine fell off in less than a year. And I have a winter garage queen.

Mine were delivered in the heat of summer. When I opened the box the logos were already not attached lol

I still have them but I'm sure the adhesive is dried out by now it has been more than a year. They are sitting on a shelf sticky side up collecting dust.

I prefer the no logo look anyway. I debadged my BRZ the day I took it home.

I emailed them last week and just got a response:

Quote:
Thank you for your interest in MacNeil Automotive Products.

I apologize for the delay in responding. Record call volume has caused us to get a little backed up in our email correspondence.

We have actually changed our adhesive on the labels, and we apologize you had problems with your current pair of labels.

If you could please provide us with the complete address that you would like the labels sent to we would be more than happy to get those out in the mail for you.
MacNeil, eh?
