Weathertech mats a good match?

    OK, maybe I'm overthinking this....heck, I'm definitely overthinking it. :D

    Just picked up my lovely new Prius last week, and now I'm shopping for mats. I'm thinking Weathertech, but I'm wondering how well their tan/beige mats look against the bisque carpeting. The photo on their site makes it look like a really dark tan.

    I had mats on my Infiniti that were a significantly darker tan than the carpeting, and it drove me nuts for the whole time I owned the car. It sounds silly, I know, but it really looked crummy.

    Anyone have the tan Weathertech mats with a bisque interior? How do they look?


    Oh, and I have to say thanks to everyone here for the help and information you all provide. I've learned so much in the time I've been reading these boards, they are absolutely invaluable. What I read here got me past a number of concerns that I had, and really convinced me to buy the car. And I'm so glad I did!

    Just for the heck of it, if you have a Costco in your area, check out their floor mat sets.

    Costco is just down the road, I'll check them out. Do their mats fit well? I was assuming I'd need to get mats that are car-specific, like Weathertech's.....

    I picked up my 07 seaside pearl with bisque interior on 9/6 and immediately ordered a set of Weathertech mats as I had them on my last vehicle and loved them.
    I originally ordered the tan and when they came I thought that they looked awful with the bisque interior. Sent them back and got a black set thinking that with the black dash and doors, that would work.
    Black works much better. Please note that I had to do some trimming to get them to fit. It wasn't a big deal - was able to trim with a pair of scissors.
    Good luck

    Hi All,

    Weathertech is actually closer to me than the nearest Cosco. And they do have saturday morning hours. B)
