New Weathertech mats are in and fit like a glove. Front, back and cargo mat. Got the digitally fit ones and are great. Wind deflectors for side windows not out yet.

Would love to see pics of the cargo mat as we don't have that, only the WeatherTech fronts and rears.

Default Reason for that beyond aesthetic.

that felt is there to hide the screw that connects handle to door.

Use the Carista App to customize or stop by Long Island and use mine.

There are no screw holes in the vehicle for the bottom of the license plate.

Many cars don't. I had to put felt at the bottom of my license plate on my Camaro because it doesn't have holes either and my exhaust vibrates the back of the entire car so it would make the plate buzz lol

I mounted just the license plate with no frame and loaded it up with foam weather stripping tape and it STILL rattles when the sub-woofer kicks in. I don't know what to do next. Suggestions?

Add a plate holder and make the whole thing heavier.

Use a license plate frame? With a frame, you can then use much thicker foam strips.

That's my setup and the noise went away.

Yes: get a frame. Bend the top mounts of the frame so that they exert tension on the lower portion of the frame, bending it toward the vehicle (you could also try this with the bare plate). Then the foam may dampen the vibration better.

Unless it is a plastic frame like mine. You can't see it, but there is a self-stick foam strip under the plate to remove the rattling.

just drove it for the first time at night, and the LED headlights are FANTASTIC.
