Question All Weather Floor mats

I have an opportunity to buy some "gently used" Genuine Honda All-Weather Floor Mats for a really good price. Problem is, I know nothing about them.

Does anyone know if they are any good at keeping in all the winter crud we get up here in the great white north? I've seen too many carpets ruined over the years by trying to make aftermarket mats fit...
Thanks!!

Jamie

Did you end up ordering any matts from that website? I want to get some Huskey liners but am worried about shipping/duty charges....

Not yet, but will be soon. According to their site, you have no worries. The shipping charges cover everything (brokerage fees, etc.).
You may want to call and confirm that the site is not out of date though...
Canadian Shipping

But if you aren't stuck on Husky Liners, weathertech has a canadian distributer to avoid all that:
WeatherTech Canada

I have had the OEM Honda All Weathear floor mats for about a year now and I am very happy with them. No problems at all. And the carpets are staying very nice and clean, no spill over.

best of luck

I got the WeatherTech too, but they block the heater vent.

I noticed the same issue with them partially blocking the rear vents. I'm going to try so see if I can fix it somehow, trimming will be a last resort hopefully. If I come up with something worthwhile, I'll post it.

WeatherTech mats are simply the best, practical mats I have ever seen. Having said that, I always get/buy the OEM mats for the reason being seen here; this being a fairly easy one to resolve though. Of course, I have always negotiated them in the sale of the vehicle, in two of the 3 instances being free, but none-the-less, they work almost as well as the WeatherTechs. If I didn't like the thickness of the OEMs so much, I'd be buying WeatherTechs.
