Default TRD Skid Plate

Here is a pic of the TRD skid plate I bought on ebay from China at $30 shipped. I really like it and the quality seems good so far:




One question: Where exactly do I put the plate? Is it up towards the pedals or in the middle of the floor mat??

the way I decided on mine, I just tried it out by pretending I'm driving and then placing the plate where I rest my left foot and when I'm on my heels when pedaling

Default Lexus floor plate

sorry just checked this thread now... You guys are right, nobody in EBAY has the Lexus plate right now. I think I ordered mine like back in November and I can't seem to go back that far to check on my previous Ebay transactions. Lol that tells you how much transactions I do with Ebay. But anyways I will still dig in and find out who sold me the Lexus one and will let you guys know.

I think I'd put mine where I see where my heel rests when I have my foot on the gas pedal. Also when "youse guys" attached it, did you only attach to the mat or through everything? If you went through everything then I guess the mat never comes out.
By the way it looks great. I'll have to check it out when I get back from Ireland.
