All Weather Floor Mat

ndalyte · 11-04-2005, 09:59 AM

I was wondering if Toyota makes an All Weather rubber or plastic mat for the driver, passenger and back seat floor boards? I couldn't find one on the Toyota.com accessory page (only the carpet mats). I did see some on Ebay last week, but they seem to be gone now.

Does anybody have any suggestions on finding, buying and using ones specfically for a 2005 Prius?

I haven't seen any specifically for the Prius (let us know if you find some!), but there are plenty that would fit that are generic. I had some in my Jeep and they worked pretty well.

I believe there's at least one thread on all-weather mats here, if it didn't get swallowed in the recent crash.

The topic is also covered in this PriusOnline thread: http://www.priusonline.com/viewtopic.php?t...der=asc&start=0

The only problem I've had with my Carbox all-weather floor trays is on the driver's mat. Each mat is held in place by square velcro swatches at all four corners. The velcro's grip on the carpet is much stronger than the adhesive bond between the velcro pad and the bottom of the mat. As a result, the driver's mat eventually comes loose from all four velcro pads and starts sliding forward. I don't know if the WeatherTech mats have a similar problem.

When I get around to it, I plan to try and clean all the adhesive off of each velcro piece and reattach them to the mat with Gorilla Glue. Hope this helps.

Costco. Rubber mats. Gray or tan. Fit pretty well, $20 as I recall.

WeatherTech

Or you can get Toyota ones from up here =). They're fairly sturdy.

Toyota sells all weather mats that are specifically made for the Prius. I got mine from the dealership. They are costly, but since I got mine for free I couldn't complain. They both fit and work great.

Just curious- how did you get them for free? Do you mean the dealer threw them in with the purchase of your prius? Thanks!

I agree with onerpm. The Costco mats are great and only$20.

I got generic ones from Canadian Tire. It didn't take much trimming to make them fit exactly. They have very deep ridges so the winter snow/salt from my boots won't make a mess.
