WeatherTech floor mats
 
Check these out people, they currently don't make them for the FRS but if enough people e-mail a request like I did maybe they can speed up production. I plan on driving my car in the winter and would love to keep my carpets from being soaked in sand and salt.

I had a set of them in my last car and it was the best $100 you could spend to protect the interior from salty boots in the winter.

I have talked to them and they are working on a set for twins, hopefully they will be ready sometime in November. If every body could log into their website and fill out their product request form that might help us get them a little sooner...

Here is what I wrote on the WeatherTech product request form, just for your information.

"Being late into the Market with 2013 Scion FR-S floor mats is only going to hurt your sales potential. Lloyd Mats RubberTite Floor Mats are currently available for $44.91 with a 10% discount, for the front set only.


Once a User buys those, it will be hard for a change to WeatherTech, no matter how much better they might be in November or December 2012. After all, they already have purchased a functional pair of floor mats and that is all that matters.


Also, I hope you will price the front set separately from the front + back combo, as mostly nobody plans to get into the back seat of the Scion FR-S with or without soiled shoes. A $100+ combo of four mats (front and back) will be really hard to compete with $44.91 Lloyd’s front set, again, no matter what the improved quality might be, eventually".

I emailed them back in August for the Digiform mats.

FYI - It's very unlikely they will produce a set of their "digifit" mats for the rear. they don't for BMW coupes and those back seats are actually usable. Just speaking for myself, I would gladly pay $100 just for the two...

I bought a set of generic rubber mats at costco. They fit pretty well.

Me too! Well, I've had them for a few year's but they still work well.

I sent in a request a couple months ago.

Glad to hear they are definitely making a set for us.

Yeah because you live in Canada. We can't even order those mats in the US yet!

Just submitted my request :)

WeatherTech makes some really nice stuff. I submitted a request a couple of weeks ago, but haven't got an e-mail back yet. I called yesterday and spoke to a person. He said they weren't working on anything yet. Keeping my fingers crossed.
