Lightbulb WeatherTech Floor Liners & Mats

Received the WeatherTech Floor liners from KBcarstuff today. Very impressed. What I like about them:

1. Thin but sturdy.
2. Fits the floor contour almost perfectly. The 2nd row piece also covers the middle bump.
3. More protective than the factory model.
4. Because of the "lips" and the thinness, they blend seamlessly with the floor.

The only small complaint I have: the driver side piece has two holes for the retention hooks, while the passenger side doesn't. Why??? I had to remove the hooks before installing it.

Overall I am very happy.

They look great...except for that big "WeatherTech" logo screaming at you. Love the function, can do without the logo. Any way to get them without that?

You can most likely just remove the logo. I know this because we had a single isolated incident where a set of mats shipped to a customer without a logo...

Our 2010 GX460 has retention clips only on the driver's sides, which would match the picture you posted of your mats, i.e., only the driver's side mat has holes to match the clips.

I think it will probably easier just to remove the logo from the mat.

I think the configuration must have changed since 2010 - my 2011 has clips on the passenger side, but even the OEM luxury passenger-side mats from Lexus had no holes!

It must have changed ... our early-production 2010 GX 460 only has clips on the driver's side. Perhaps all the furor about loose mats forced Toyota into a "belt and suspenders" decision ... if clips are a good idea for the driver's side, it is also a good idea for the passenger's side!

P.S. We have two sets of mats ... one that came with the vehicle and a second that our dealer offered as "goodwill" when all GX's were recalled for the VSC re-programming. Both sets have clip holes only on the driver's mat.
