Default Winter floor mats for the 3GS

I live in Wisconsin and as those of you who live where it snows can relate it gets really wet inside the car during the winter. My other vehicles I could get heavy duty rubber floor mats to save the carpet in the winter. I have husky liners in my Tundra and they work great but they don't make those for the Lexus.

Does anyone know of a good winter floor mat for the 3GS?

I just bought these too. The weather in NY is starting to get crappy, thought it was time to replace the factory carpet mats.

Thanks that is exactly what I was looking for. Sounds like it's time to see if the local Lexus dealer is going to give me deals on parts otherwise I'm no stranger to ordering from the net.

Well I just got my mats from Sewell lexus. Nice fast service, great price and they look awesome. My only question now is I noticed the front drivers side is missing one of the clips that hold the mat back. Does anyone know where I can find a online lexus parts manual that I could locate one of these at? I don't even know where to start on sewell's site to find it.

I find the rubber on the Lexus winter mat a little too soft, they wear out too fast, especially where the right ankle rest. The weather tech one last a bit longer.
