Quick question for those that have the WeatherTechs. If something is spilled, is the liquid diverted to a low spot molded into the mat, or is it all directed out and over the sill plate? I sure like the looks of the WeatherTech vs the HuskyLiner, but I want something the retains the fluids.

I'd be hesitant to have liquid flowing around the sill plate. There is a channel under the passenger side sill plate that is loaded with wires. Liquid tends to collect in this channel and it appears that there is no drain for it to run out.
(Don't ask why I know this)

Neil,

Sorry to be off topic, but I was watching this thread as I think I'm going to get Huskys for our long MN winters. BUT was that your wrecked Screw? I can't believe anyone could walk away from that. What the heck happened there?

Sorry Fellas,

Duke

Duke; the answer to your question above is in your email. I didn't want to hijack the thread.

My floor mat solution ...

Here are some pics on how I finally solved my floor mat question ...

I went with WeatherTech's in the front (pics are big, so click on the links) ....

And since WeatherTech didn't have a decent looking rear liner, I went with the Fox Weather Boot in the back (pics are big, so click on the links) ....

I got both sets from Cabela's. It was an expensive option, $230 for all, but I really like the way it came out. The WeatherTech fit perfect in the front ... no screws in the carpet and no "lip" to knock with your feet. They also cover the area near the door sill that is famous for collecting dirt.

The Fox Weather Boot in the back has the same characteristics as the WeatherTech's, except they have carpet over a hard plastic liner. I don't have heavy traffic in the back seats so the carpet was fine and it retains the original look. Onlt thing was that I had to unbolt the rear subwoofer to install it (it went underneath).

I highly recommend this set-up!!
