They fit perfect but feel a little thin, although they do feel tough. Will see how they hold up!

It was raining out so theres a couple spots in the picture that were water droplets.

Looks great, might go that route too.... winters have been quite sloppy for me. How much did those run you??

[skubidoobie]

Steep, like $177 shipped. Depends how important protecting your investment is to you!

[MikeHTally]

You'll like 'em. I have those in my Ram.

[strytnyne]

looks better then the regular all season mats.

[ezrally]

Ha- just got our Floor Liner yesterday too!
Fitment just about perfect, and the "hook" hole for drivers mat is proper.
No new rubber smell at all either.
Esp like the way the rear goes over the hump, now the kids can slop all they want w/o me freaking out. ;)
Kinda x-pensive, but worth it.
Toronto3 board has done 2 group buys on these Floor Liners- HintHint.

Man, those look nice. But in FL, the OEM all-weather mats will have to do for me.

[PCspeed3]

Damn those things look like buckets! thats what i need to get.

[derspi]

I thought about getting those at one time but I couldn't justify the price - they cost more than the uber rare Cobb intake! That and the fact that it just seems weird looking having that slab of rubber welcome me every time I open a door. I'm pretty good with vacuuming regularly and keeping the interior in good shape so I'll just leave the OEM mats in and spend my money elsewhere.

[skubidoobie]

Doesn't matter how often you vacuum when snow and salt season comes. And just think, this is one mod that won't void the warranty! (cabpatch)

[ZyrehT]

I've always used and liked weathertech products. If only they'd make their vent shades for our 3's.

[mrjoshyman]

the price is super steep, but those look like they fit perfectly and i really want to keep things clean....hmmm

[mazdaspeedster3]

The backseat floor protection looks great, I would get just those. The mazda A/S work fine for the front for me.

I echo the same sentiment. I like how the rear one covers the entire back. For me, the front OEM ones are plenty adequate for FL weather :)

[JingChuan]

Sounds like the seed of a group buy...

Ok, I'm in!

FWIW, I have the "all-season" style rubber mats in our Jetta, and they (just like the Mazda mats) can't really protect the sides of the footwell area. In the Jetta, the carpet on the bottom of footwell is perfectly clean, while the carpet that covers the sides always catches a bunch of crud, specifically in winter. I love the design of the Weathertechs, but $177? Ouch.

*EDIT* I see that their office is about 20 min away from mine. I also know that a friend scored digits off a weathertech rep when he was at SEMA. Hmmm....

[oaklandopen]

very, very, VERY nice looking. xmas is coming up, and it looks like that will be the only way i could afford them. but i need tint as well....oh such difficulty choice is

[MikeHTally]

Depending on the terms, I may be up for a group buy. Still may be a bit too much. I only paid a bit over a c-note for front and rear mats in my Ram. 'Course Dodge sells more Rams in a month than all the Mazdas in a year. Tends to make the after-market a bit larger.

[skubidoobie]

I sent them an e-mail looking to get a discount for you guys on a GB, I'll let you know what happens.

[Sleeper 362]

Have these in my escape and I am getting them for this car too. They kick behind. They can hold like 3 gallons of fluid in them.

[BurnoutX]

really wish they would cover the dead pedal area.

[skubidoobie]

really wish they would cover the dead pedal area.

Yeah, I wish they went all they way over the foot rest spot. But other than that they've been awesome so far!

[UHATEIT]

those look awesome! too bad they costa grip, but if you need them in your area go for it!

tho i would think at that price, you could probably buy a brand new set of oem ones if you trashed them right? then I'd just keep the A/S ones in there and replace them for the price of those ones you got. They look great mang!

[skubidoobie]

I e-mailed MacNeil Automotive (Weather Tech) and tried to see if they'd hook up our forum members with a GB discount, so far no reply. I figured with all the interest they could sell a good number of these if they gave us a deal.

GB I'd be in for this! Good xmas gift!

[speed3se-r]

what about the rear hatch area? I want one of those...

The factory one for the MZ3 fits.

[skubidoobie]

Yeah the factory Mazda "tray" is the best way to go there, one of the vendors here has it for $40.

[BurnoutX]

i second that statement. fits perfectly and even comes w/ a mazda imprint on it :)

[Kain]

me ruv me OEM rubber trunk and floor mats rong time, but if someone can get a significant discount on those Weather Tech mats, I'm on it.

[speed3se-r]

didnt know they already made one. Great!

[speed3se-r]

Which vendor???

[Hank3]

I got my trunk mat for right around $40 IIRC from zoomzone (Justin). Click here (http://www.msprotege.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=310) to get to his vendor forum.

That's crazy! You can probably replace the cheap ass carpet they put in these cars for less than that.

[ZyrehT]

I really doubt that.

[skubidoobie]

So instead of buying these you'll replace your entire carpet every couple years? Feel free, but I say F-that!

[goodenough]

New to forum, stumbled across this thread, you could count me in a group buy for the mats.

[skubidoobie]

They won't respond so I guess they aren't interested, too bad, they could have sold some product to us.
