Default New All-Weather Floor Mats are Out~

Sorry if its a re-post.



The new Toyota/Lexus O/E All-Weather Mats are available now, and I just got mine a few minutes ago today.

I have been waiting for more than 18 months since Toyota removed their all-weather mats because of the brake pedal recall issue. Well... the new design is out now.

-The O/E listing price is around $130, and you can save a few bucks by ordering from the fleabay or some online vendors.
-There will be different part number for SWB and LWB, and I don't think there are special ones made for the LS-H model.
-The new design is much lighter, thiner, and softer, and one color option only-Charcoal Black.

I will put it on and inspect its fitment later on today and post pics. I think the new design has crappier look and less quality than before. Just my opinion for now and I hope I am wrong.

Great, better late than never, it'd have been nice if they were available this past snow season. How are they different from the European version Sewell is selling?

I just checked Sewell, they are selling them for $119 and $90.75 for CL members. Just go to http://is.sewellparts.com/clublexus.php to register and you'll get the discount.

Yeah... the euro version is about $200 now and it was $260 18 months ago when I just got my car.

The euro set looks alright but still the older version Toyota/Lex was selling between 06' and 09' had the better look. I still have those for my Rx400h and IS350. The older version was thick and in true black color, with deep smooth lines, easy to clean, and have the sexy Lex logos molded in white color on the side.

LOL... "Member", you are more than welcome to write a review on the Euro set but I won't pay $200 for a set of mats. Besides the price, I believe the Euro set is never inspected by DOT in USA.

I feel this would be the ultimate all weather mat. It protects a lot more. I have them in my 4Runner. http://www.weathertech.com/store/mvp...oiceIds=25,883

I completely disagree. I have those for my kids' Honda CR-V and they are junky. Reminds me of my mom's old 1964 Ford Falcon with sprayed rubber flooring.

Are these new Lexus winter mats sturdy? Are they thick to catch snow and debris like the old winter mats?

this is one reason why i am glad to be down south and not in Colorado anymore..it just sucked kickin your shoes together to try and minimize all the crap you just tracked into your car..i like these new AW mats, but probably go for the brown std LS mats formy tan interior like others have done to hide dirt better.
