Those of you with husky or weathertech mats
They give exceptional protection/coverage to the carpeting and the threshold out the door. Basically no crap ever gets on your carpet, they fit like a glove, hold all the liquid/garbage you can track in, and have exceptional customer service. They clean up great every time too.
I had a threshold lip start catching on the drivers door when it was shutting and over time it no longer laid flat and caught on the door even worse. I called and they sent out a replacement, and payed the shipping for the screwed up mat back to them... all about 4 years after I had bought and used them. No questions asked.
I'd give em five stars every time, so yea they are good stuff. I really give them a great rating in the winter when you are trekking in salt/snow that melts while driving.

I can't say for sure on that, I don't see why they wouldn't work even if they didn't latch in. I had to look at a lot of pictures and check out a few actual trucks before I settled on dual posts as the norm across the FX4's.

the weathertechs are more rubbery in my opinion (after trimming around the subwoofer area). Theyve been great for traction, I had one of the tall rectangular boxes of tissues sitting in the middle of the rear floorboard driving somewhat spiritedly on some mountain backroads and they never moved. Theyre awesome mats, I really cant imagine that anything tops them

the weathertechs suck, the back one will fold up and curl and slide, especially if you have a dog jumping in and out. The fronts fit well but are thin slippery plastic and on the 2010 and older will slide on the passenger side as there is no hook, 2011 and newer have a passenger side hook i believe. I have Aries in the fronts, much better than the weathertech. They offer the exact same coverage and are heavier, and rubber, not the slippery plastic like weathertech. unfortunately two years ago when i bought mine Aries didnt have a rear one that went under the seats so i got a weathertech and it is pure junk compared to the aries. I built a little box for under my rear seat and put some carpet on it that matches my factory carpet and that holds it down, but if you plan on having the seat up and a dog jumping in on it i would get the ford factory one, or maybe put a buncha velcro stuck to the bottom of the weathertech or it will slide around on you for sure.
