Default Why I have Weathertech Floor Mats :)

Little accident the other day with my wifes coffee - totally my fault (or the ISF for only having 1 cup holder).

Anyways - had a moment of panic .. but then happiness when the mess was contained Easily dumped it out when i got home.

AKA why I never drink or transport beverages (without a screw on top) in my car.


Those weathertec mats really did their job!

Two if you count the one in the center console. either way those mats saved your carpet! I need to buy a set for myself.

Another reason why I never allow food or drinks in my car. My wife spilled coffee on my week old suede seats in a previous car. She is still mad at me that I cared more about my suede seats than her burnt hand. Funy thing is that was the one time I allowed it.

nice save with the mats...

but yeah i use the one in the center console all the time when the wife's in the passenger seat... i also rarely resort to the two in the center rest of the rear where u can find 2 more cup holders when i have to do a drink run of some sort...

i find a no wife and no beverage rule avoids the problem entirely.

I follow this same rule! I have the weather tech as well. Got them for my GS and just had to cut down the rear seat mats for the IS-F.

That's not coffee. That looks like coffee-flavored milk.

Got the same mats on my F. No broad to dump coffee-flavored milk onto them tho...

Yep :-) technically she wasn't in the car - although she does like driving it. I was picking it up for her on the way home from work so I cant blame anyone but myself. I typically use the rear seat cup holders if i need 2 (the 2nd cup hold in the arm rest is pretty useless in my opinion).

It was some kind of chi tea something - regardless so happy I had those mats :-) so it didnt end up in my carpet.

Be glad it was on the floor mat instead all on the seats and the perforations!
