Default Need a rear mat suggestions?

I need a rear trunk mat for my truck. My issue is that I have the third row seat split 50/50. Should I buy a factory mat and just cut it? Where the seats separate?

Do I have any other options?

I have the same issue.

What I will probably end up doing is getting some rubber blacked carpet from the home center and cutting that up. Its going to take a little bit more work than cutting a factory mat but it will cost hell of alot less.

Buying a custom GX mat and cutting it is not practical. The high cost and the required modification with cutting the custom fit would compromise the outer seam or molding look.

I think a general mat would fit your need better.

I have a mat in my GX that is made for a garage.
I think this is it.

I expected to cut it, but turns out it was not necessary for my application (it covers the entire rear).
This type of mat allows a cleaner look when cutting is needed.

I like this idea - thanks for the tip!
