our parts department deals with weather tech regularly and i know they will soon be coming out with a headlight clear urethane film to overlay and protect the head lamps from pitting and getting cracked. ill try to post when they are available. keep an eye out. im totally gonna ge them. so worth it for how much the headlamps are. i think they covers are like 60 bucks or 70 bucks i think.

My mats came in 4 days after order. I was told 7 over phone. I was amazed by how light they were, I was afraid they would be thick chunks of rubber. Also, the fit is better then I imagine it would be. They look better then factory. Worth every dollar!

The Toronto Globe & Mail just had a "mat-off" and (big spoiler here) the WeatherTech mats wiped the floor with the rest of them.

That review is pretty silly. It compares universal fit to weather tech digital fit, like comparing sweat pants to a tailored suit.

^ I think the idea was to see if spending four or five times as much on a mat is actually worth it....

Finally arrived here in the Great White North.
Picked up my WeatherTech direct fits today.
No more salty crusty carpet surrounding the inadequate stock winter mats.

I think the fact that they photographed the Weathertech upside down (all others have top-o-mat at top of frame says a lot about the article... (no slam on Weathertech products... just goofs doing what they consider an in-depth and thorough research piece.

Just got my Weathertech floor liners in today. Wow, just as others posted...great fit! I love how the drivers side liner covers the hump in the floor just below the gas pedal. The stock floor mats do not cover that area and the carpet was just starting to show some wear from the heel of my right foot.

All in all a fantastic product and also...it's nice that they do not have the typical stinky odor that other rubber mats have.

As mentioned earlier, Cocomats are an alternative in some regions. I've had them for three years in my Legacy and they look brand new still. I just got the set made for my BRZ today. Here they are for those considering going this route.

My weathertechs might be one of my cheapest mod, but they are definitely one of my favorites. The fact that they're digitally crafted is insanely obvious when you install them for the first time.
