    @black_jmyntrn

    Are there other design types of the Husky Weatherbeaters?

    I dont think they are ugly though.

    A big smile and chuckle I have right now.

    I actually don't think there is. That's just me pulling your chain, when I do it, you know it's to bring a smile to your face. These other jokers have malicious intent behind their words!

    Way better than the cheap goodyear mats that were there when I bought the car.

    Now my foot doesnt slide around with the mat or get stuck under the pedals.

    Yea these lunatics on here are just that.

    @ASRDogman
    I've got updates on the cleaning of the 3d mats.
    Here it is sufficiently dirtied after being the car for a couple weeks.
    [​IMG]

    The first thing I did was just give a couple taps from the back to see how much would come off.
    [​IMG]

    Then I used a vacuum across the whole thing which some more of the loose dirt particles off.
    [​IMG]

    It was still retaining some of the pressed in dirt spots so I took to my kitchen sink and just ran water across it and then smacked the mat on the ground in an attempt to knock off the water.
    [​IMG]

    The mat was still gripping a small amount of water; so i know spills will most definitely stay on the mat and not slosh around as I drive. I wiped a dish towel across the mat to get most of remaining water off and now it looks basically brand new(as soon as the last small amount of water evaporates).

    I am still very satisfied with my purchase.

    and they look better than the other brand that for sure!
    What I do, when at the coin car wash with the spray wand, get them cleaned... then without drying them, a couple squeezes from the
    303 Automotive Protectant will have them staying literally like new after cleaning.

    Good idea! I hope TapaTalk/PriusChat doesn’t give me trouble like in the past, (trying to post a picture. Sorry for the mess). IMG_1874.jpg

    Sides are good and the front edge (which is also not supported), but just that back edge looks unpleasant.

    Maybe a hair drying to heat it up and shape it? Or lay it in the sun for
    30 minutes or so, so that it's soft, then mold it?

    Yeah but I mean, that's something that shouldn't need to be done with something new let alone what some call the best ones out there... I guess you just cant believe everything you read someone recommends on this forum aye!

    These are very old. I didn’t mean to represent that….

    And unlike the fronts for some reason are very soft…

    It’s very pliable like rubberized so I can easily straighten it but it just as easily goes back to crooked once I let go…

    I know, that's why it needs to be heated. NOT super hot, laying in the sun for
    10-15 minutes will be enough. They put it where you want it, and let it cool.
    That's what I did with the weather tech mats...
