    They fit perfectly and should have been included as a standard feature of the Prius. Highly recommended.

    Terry,

    They come with adhesive now?

    Mine came with double sided tape which I only used on the cupholder pads.

    The double sided tape works well and is easy to use.

    I would have thought that Velcro would be too thick and lumpy.

    Tom,
    The double sided tape was the adhesive. I was unable to get both sides off. Maybe I am clumsy...The velcro works great for the front cupholders. That is all I used it for...and also with the little storage pad that came with the car just under the navigation screen. That pad kept falling out. As far as the bulkiness, the cup sits in there fine, even provides a little more padding for the containers.
    I hope I can get a discount on those flood light protectors from Wilson after all this hype on the cup holder pads! Terry

    Hi all,
    Thanks to everyone who recommended these pads on this site! They work really well, and they look great too! I have a terrible habit of keeping loose change in my cupholders . . .and with these pads, I get absolutely no coin rattles!

    Got it.

    BTW, the brand name "Velcro" was made up by Velcro's inventor out of two French words --- velours for the fuzzy loop part, and crochet for the hook part.

    lets see. 7 pages of glowing reviews and most of the posts are made by new members with only a few posts total. I still say it could be a great product but I will not reward a spammer with my business!

    I am going to order the ones for the cup holders. I had two 4Runners which had the rubber liner in the cup holders and I loved them. I really think that Toyota missed something when they decided not to put those in. Spammer or not, its 18 bucks and I think they would work fine.

    Re: Non-Slip Pads work great!

    It's not spam.

    It would be spam if the vendor, Wilson, were to bump this thread himself.

    But he doesn't.

    Wilson just asks his buyers to post a review of the product to this thread.

    I could have posted a review that says "Non-Slip Pads suck! And so does Wilson!"

    But they don't. And I didn't.

    Re: Non-Slip Pads work great!

    Sheepdog, my post to Wilson was a copy I sent to him via e-mail. I don't know him but after seeing his concise pads with identifying placement on each pad I have to say his product is pretty good. I hope my last post did not affect his products for sale. I like my Prius and I like his attention to detail with the pads. If his other products are as good, and I don't know anything else he sells, he is a good Prius advocate with good optional stuff.
    I keep looking for good options for my car. I hope the 3 M invisible Bra is as good, mud flaps, etc, etc.......Wilson....whoever he is, just found a little niche in the market and made a pretty nice product inexpensively. it his little corner of the market...the pads are great. I am not a preacher but I think you should first contact him before making any assumption of him or any of us being spammers. BTW, I hate spammers too! Terry

    ...another satisfied customer. The pads are great! Installation was easy and directions were good but alas I too had a tough time with the double stick tapes. After a few choice words and some elbow grease I got them to work. A nice addition to a great vehicle.

    Ok all. If so many of y'all think this is ok then who am I to say different. I guess spam is in the eyes of the beholder.

    Thanks Boo! But Im never on the Christmas list anymore. Im too grumpy and AR.

    The kids at work act like kids and hate it when I treat them like adults. I'm in trouble all the time for bruising some tender virgin ego's.
