    Very cool mod with the puddle lights! I went with the OEM weather mats from BMW. The black with red trim which match my car. Always was curious what else was out there. I know The Straight Pipes are always plugging Tux Mats 🤔

    I have weathertech for the m2 and they have been fine, the lip is fine, catches all the water but maybe the design is different. That said they are just fine, I think cost way too much for what they are worth. Summer I have coco mats and I love those.

    I went back and forth with the WT and the BMW ones. Ultimately, I chose BMW. NO complaints so far. Oh, for your cargo mat, for the creased area - I could recommend you take a heat gun and maybe try and re-bend that piece back to straight. That might work.

    I've had weathertech mats in a 2012 escape, 2013 fusion, 2016 f150, 2020 altima, and a 2017 grand caravan. They are nice, but I think there are better options (or at least the same quality) for cheaper. I also had them for a 2021 rav4 (I knew I was buying the vehicle, and bought the mats before vehicle was delivered)- I ended up buying a rav4 that had the factory all weather mats. The factory mats were MUCH better than the weathertechs. I then bought a 2023 hyundai santa fe- weathertech mats were over $200..I found a company called 'lasfit' and bought their all weather mats. They have been fantasic, were less than half the price of WT and had a 30 (or more, I forget) money back guarantee if not happy with the mats.

    Finally someone is calling out WeatherTech. WeatherTech has for the last few years charged premium pricing on mediocre products. Bought into all the "influencer" hype and purchased them for my M6 and my Cayenne GTS, the rear floor mats were literally paper thin compared to the fronts and nothing secured them down. As a result they just wobble/rattle around the interior with sub-par fitment. There's so many new products that actually have better designs and are cheaper that warrant me to never make a purchase from WeatherTech ever again.

    • @memememine1

      Sad to see. I really like the WeatherTech products for my old 2011 Audi and 2013 911. What do company do you recommend. I'm trying to find some for my model 3 and Tesla doesn't make good OEM all weather mats.

    • @Wasabi9111

      So true. For a couple of my cars I was able to find cheap floor mats on Amazon / eBay for a faction of the price w better fitment.

    To be fair, that pedal design where the gas pedal is in the floor instead of the normal way (like brake pedal is) is flawed. You can never get a floor mat that will completely protect the carpet in that area no matter what kind of mat you use. I have an mk7 GTI and I've been using weathertech mats since I got the car and they are literally perfect because the gas pedal hangs from above, instead of protruding from the floor. The carpets underneath the front floor mats are flawless.
    My biggest complain from weathertech is their material quality.
    They get too slippery, to the point where it is unsafe to drive, when they are wet (every time I get a carwash I have to dry the mats before I can drive).
    If there is a crease or the mats develop a crease from usage, it is never coming out as demonstrated by your trunk/ cargo cover. The rear mats that I have in my car might as well be frisbees. They had a 2 inch lip all the way around to contain water/snow/salt when they were new, and now they are flat because they had creases in them and they didn't fit perfectly in their place when they were new. It's gotten to a point where they will slide underneath the front seats and I have to constantly keep pulling them out anytime someone uses the rear seats.
    However, credit where credit is due. They are the only plastic/rubber mats I've used (I've used 4 different brands/kinds) that don't stink when heat is on.

    Weathertech products are average in quality but there prices are so ridiculous. I would bet there markup is probably 700 to 1000 %. The last thing I bought was the cupfone, fits terrible in my ford f150 for $65 it is quite a joke. I don’t buy there sh*t any more.
