Husky Mat problem . ..

. . . the rear Husky Mat for the Screw doesn't fit well if you have the Audiophile subwoofer. There is a large piece that was made to go under the seat that won't squeeze under the subwoofer box well at all. Not sure if they are aware of the problem or not. I may do a little "engineering" on mine to make it work.

Otherwise, after 3 weeks I absolutely LOVE my Screw Lariat. Ride is unbelieveable, interior if great, and last week when I was at a Ritz Carlton the valet brought it around and it was next to a Jag, a 5 series BMW, and a Range Rover and yet I had 4 people come up and ask to look in it totally ignoring the other cars. This is one bad *** truck. And I've hauled a couple of loads of firewood in the bed without hardly noticing any change in the ride or acceleration. Can't wait to tow something.

thanks for the post. i'm considering the husky mats since the factory ones for the FX are pretty whimpy, esp. the rear on the SCREW. Aside from the subwoofer issue, how do the mats fit on the rear. Also, did you get the front mats and how well do they fit?

Front mats fit very well . . .

. . .I really like them as they are easy to clean, work well, and hell anything is an improvement over the factory ones. The rear mat fits well up against the seats and molds well to the floor as well as the center "hump". It's just going to take some work to get it in with the subwoofer in place and you can forget about easy removal.

do they have a lip on the edges of them and does it make it difficult to get in and out of the truck?

Yes, they have a lip . . .

. . . which IMO is an absolute necessity to contain any spills, mud, etc. It doesn't make it any more difficult for me to get into and out of the truck.

MCG DAWG I have the Husky Liner in my supercab with audiophile and was able to install it by removing the three screws that hold the sub and lifting the sub up while tucking the mat under and then re-installing the sub. I had to put some pressure on the sub to get it down low enough to re-install the screws but it worked with no problem.

Mats

I have the Nifty Catch-Alls in my 04 SCrew and they fit really well front and rear. They are also made to retain the mess.

Thanks for the info. I bought the Husky mat, front only... I will think about the rear when I get my truck.

Since it doesn't fit vey well, does anyone have a photo of the rear Husky liner installed with the audiophile sub. Or maybe modified to fit with the sub. I am trying to decide between the Husky and the Nifty Xtreme. I love my 04
