husky or weathertech liners?

Carguy,
Here's the update I promised, its a bit late since its been raining and I haven't had a chance to put the liners under the sun. So I didn't and there's a little hump where they bent the rear liner to fit in the box. But the fit is still pretty good. Hands down better than the WTs. I say I give it 4.5 stars overall and why not 5?
First of all look at kevintown's post if you haven't

since the front liners are built for the RX300, 04 RX330, and Highlander 01-04 the liners depicted in kevintown's post are the same ones. The rear are made specifically for the rx300 (no other models listed on the box) but they fit like as shown in kevintown's post.
Color is way lighter than the WTs and the frt and rear are color matched unlike the WTs. The tan colored liners actually look good with the RX tan/beige interior.
The frt WTs feel sturdier (which is actually why it doesn't fit well) and better built (yes I hate to admit that they do look better) BUT the Husky actually fit and the WTs don't. As for the rear the Husky are sturdier than the floppy material that WT used for their rears (yes, the WT frt and rr are made of diff mat'ls) The lip supports on the husky actually helps a lot to push the lips and make them hug the sides.
So why 4.5 stars? If you look at the frt driver side pic on kevintown it kinda shows that there is actually no lip in the front, though the front firewall goes up you can barely see that the lip is kinda low where it transitions from the floor to the firewall so water can spill over right there by the gas pedal. Same thing on the passenger side right by the outer kick panel.
Overall the WT lips on the frt liners are at least twice the height of the Husky lips so if you really have this pan that will hold water, the problem is that they overdid it so the lips extend past the door sills and create a tripping hazard. The huskys do not extend past the plastic trim and actually tucks nicely below it for a perfect fit.
So there you go! Hope this helps anyone deciding on wether to get WT or Husky liners.

Thanks for the update. Those husky ones definitely look like the way to go. I might have to get a set of those. Anyone want to buy some weathertech rubber mats to make it an easy decision?
