Anyone has promo code for Weather tech which I can use. If yes, please share it. I am planning to buy liner as that seems to provide more protection.

Finally bought weathertech liner. Delivery was quick. Fitting is good especially the rear ones. They are thinner than I expected and little bit on hard side. I hope they last long and protect the carpet.

Driver side. Fits well. Only issue - Does not cover dead pedal fully.
Front Passenger side.
Rear liner. Driver seat all the way back.
Rear liner. Driver seat all the way front.

The only complaint I have about the Weathertech rear seat floor liners is how high the outer edges raise up to fit over the front seat tracks. Since I'm not a small man, my programmed driver seat position is almost all the way back, and when I get in and select my Position 2 (the wife is ALWAYS No.1 since it's her car), the front seat actually pushed the rear seat liner out of position. All that needs to be done to fix this is to trim the top edges of the liner down about 1/4" around the seat tracks, but I wish that Weathertech had caught this slight design flaw at the factory.

I tried this today. You are right. Though it did not push the liner in my case, I could hear a noise when seat went from front to back so liner's top must have caused it.
In my case I am the main driver and seat will always be all the way back, so it will not be an issue for me.
In just 10 days of ownership, I had salt on carpet as I had regular lexus mat. I hope these liners will help and keep snow and salt out of carpet. Liners are costly but if they last 4-5 years, no issues.

Like I said above, in my DD F250, my liners are slightly scuffed and lightly scratched, but still clean up exceptionally well and do NOT look nearly as bad as you might expect after 10 years of use, and I've put 175,000 miles on that truck in that time frame, so it has NOT been a lightly used vehicle.

Below is how I'm planning to trim the rear floor liners to eliminate the "push back" we get every time I drive. The trim points are shown with dashed red lines.

I just noticed, too, that your new front liners come with little twist lock connectors instead of the snap in hooks on mine. I really like how that cleans up the appearance, but I can't justify the expense of new liners just to convert over to that arrangement.

+1 to this, that's really the only bad thing about these for the rear seat. I didn't notice it for so long that the mat stayed bent like that for a while. Had to trim it. Highly doubt Weathertech will ever fix that design flaw though.

Now when we buy from weathertech site, they ask for connection type (twist or hook). 2013 RX has twist so I asked for twist.
I agree no point in spending money on new one just for twist.

... AND... the twist lock probably would not fit/connect into my snap locks inside the carpet, anyway.

It IS, however, something I will keep in mind when I look at upgrading to a '13/'14 in the next several years.

Default 2011 RX450H weather cargo liner

Hello All,

I have recently owned a lexus RX450H 2011 model. The car come with a factory all weather cargo liner which is a plastic tray to prevent carpet wear. However, the surface is very slippy and everyday when i turn a corner, everything in the cargo slipping around. Can anyone give me advice on how to get things steady and grip? I am considering buying a anti-slip liner or other aftermarket rubber liner.

My current liner looks like:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/LEXUS-BOO...-/232182484154

Consider buying:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEXUS-RX35...gAAOSwLF1X3A-E
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Le...item3d25451c64

Please advice.
Thanks All,

We have the OEM all weather liner. Great, no issues. No sliding cargo.

We use Weathertech floor mats. In all of our Lexus vehicles.

For your 2011 RX, check this out:

http://www.weathertech.com/lexus/2011/rx/cargo-liner/

http://www.weathertech.com/lexus/2011/rx/cargo-liner/

It is pricy, but worth it.

I use the laser cut version of Weathertech for the front.

Yours should look like this one at Amazon (OEM Lexus was about $80 from my dealer)
This was the 1st 2 piece Mat I had purchased and I am quite satisfied!
