aint i cruelI just got my xA a month ago, and I'm planning to get the Scion carpet mats through the dealership after I get my $50 gift card from Scion. But for winter use (I'm in PA) I went to Wal-Mart and got a really nice set of rubber all-weather mats. They're very nice. They're heavy so they stay in place, and they have deep grooves to trap and hold water and mud. Got 'em in black. You buy each one separate, but I think all 4 totaled around $35 if I remember correctly.

I bought these here: http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=41586
They're all weather custom cut floormatts. I've had them for my truck for over a year and love them.

Just got the factory mat set for Christmas, and they are nice. Some of the nicest factory mats I've had in a new car for a while.

Also the cargo liner is real nice too. That is if you plan on hauling some stuff around.

FORGET the cargo cover. It's a joke. If you want a cargo cover, go to

www.newscionparts.com

and get the JDM hard cover. Expensive, but nice.

I forget the site but you can probably search on here. There's a Richmond, Virginia Scion dealer that has great prices online. Only reason why I'm glad I live near Richmond. :P

I have those Wal-mart mats, and the rear ones fit in perfectly, like they were designed for the car.

The front driver side needed to be modified slightly, so it didnt interfere with the clutch pedal and the dead pedal, but now it fits perfectly.

i saved the $$$, and bought a grey carpeded 4-pc mat set at wal-mart, and saved a bunch. they didn't have the black ones, so i went with the grey (which matched my thunder cloud exterior). just make sure with mats, that you get some with the dimpled backside, cause ones with a smooth surface will continually slide up and tick you off!

I've got aluminum diamond plate mats in mine. Got 'em off eBay, they look great, fit perfect and don't absorb a damn thing. :D :lol:

I saw those Alum. Diamond mat, but wasnt sure exactly what they were. Are they actually metal ? do the slide ? Are they Stiff like metal?
I do have the SCION mats, but I went to the WAL and picked up some small rubber mats , when we just had this Torrential Rain. When it stopped, I just put them on the floor, each side in the back seat. I never see them back there, but are really helpful when my Dogs feet are moist and I didnt catch it before he jumped in. He lands on the floor first instead of on the seat.
But I was so glad to not be wetting and dirtering(lol) my front mats when it rained, And next rain, they`ll come from the back to the front again.

yes but if you buy your floormats or accesories from dealer they come with warranty, and the floor mats need that, since they wear out real easy. i dunno about the quality of the other accesories. but i had to get my floormats replaced after 1k miles, the fabric was starting to wear a hole

i have a set of xA floormats in my garage, never used. the dealer gave me the wrong floormats but had let me keep my old ones when i got them replaced. i dunno what they would cost to ship

The diamond plate floormats do not slide at all. They are custom cut for the xb or whatever car you buy them for.
The only thing really old school on my car so far is the pinstriping. Ron Myers did a frankenstein skull on the hood with ghost flames going down the sides and a big Rat Fink on the back. Eventually I want to chop the top and make an exterior windshield visor for it.
I have the same frankenstein skull tattooed on my arm. :D

ProjectFusion I was unable to see the Mats or any other of your products. There were NO pics.
WOW , I cant believe they only lasted 1000miles!!! Im on 6500miles on original SCION mats, still no problem they look great!
Yes, you might not get a warranty, But all you have to do is make sure you are buying from an Ebay STORE. Someone who has a business and also sells on EBAY. They can give you a Guaranty, plus you wont pay TAX on it. If out of your State. So buy from Stores rather an Individual selling a couple things. But sometimes if its a NEW item, it WILL come with the Orig. Registration. You just got to spend a little time in front of the PC.

Reason you don't see pics is b/c I haven't had a chance to update anything lately. But if you want pics I have pics of all the XA/XB/TC floormats

Thats alright, can you tell me, Are they actually metal and can the dent or discolor ?

FrankenScion
01-16-2005, 01:41 PM
Mine are actual metal. Hypothetically they could dent, but its highly unlikely. I can't imagine them discoloring.

ProjectFusion
01-16-2005, 01:49 PM
I use mine in my Scion on a daily bases. In that time they have gotten a little dirty but no denting and haven't had any discoloring.

Why do you have such a hard on for ebay? I bought my xb mats from the dealer because I had a scion gift card. I buy and sell on ebay often so you aren't exactly a trend setter here. :roll:

WHAT?! Where the hell was I showing a Hard On??!! Im not going around saying that :" I but and Sell......' Thats YOU. People here are ACTUAL Scion Owners Who are trying to HELP each other by giving OPTIONS. That way a SCION Owner can DECIDE which is the BEST OPTION for Whatever they want. NOT ALL OF US HAD A SCION GIFT CARD, So Why do YOU think YOUR SO SPECIAL?? Wow, is that being a TREND SETTER, that Everyone MUST HAVE A GIFT CARD??!!!

:lol:

I have a '05 xb so i'm an actual scion owner too so i'm not sure where you got the notion that I didn't own a scion. Anyway I think you got a little too excited over ebay... I'm guessing you run an Ebay store. You can get the xb floormats for 45 bucks from http://www.mcgeorgeparts.com/ which is a toyota dealership and i'd feel safer going with them over any ebay store. We all know the different choices out there, we just pick the ones best for us. I mentioned the gift card because many of us did get them if you financed through toyota financial and that's my reason for not buying from ebay with exaggerated shipping rates and possibly not getting your item.

Dude, your icon to the left says "Future....."
Listen, My Dealer here in North Hollywood CA. did not have and didnt know when they would have the Half Bra for the xB. So I went on Ebay to look. I found one, From a SCION DEALER in PA, THOMPSON TOYOTA on Swamp Rd. in DOYLESTOWN PA., So I Bought it On EBAY from a SCION DEALER. That was much easier than Calling or Driving to Every DEALER around.
And DON`T buy from Sellers who have OUTRAGEOUS SH/H.
Are they a Seller or a Shipping Co.! I Totally AGREE with you on that. And it doesnt matter Who or Where you buy, its Who you Buy it From, if want it you find it anyway and Allways you can.
And besides, Ebay owns PAY PAL, so its
ALL Guaranteed and Sellers EARN SCORES that let you know if they are on the UP.
And NO Im Not a Seller. I just like to Buy A LOT of OVERSEA and Hard to Find Items.
And Im glad that I can PUT Anything I find HERE in the back of the xB, I have always been in Lower cars and had Trunks and Tiny Hatchbacks.

Oh I never noticed the future owner thing... that's dumb. Anyway, my dealer doesn't stock most parts since they have a small storage area. I placed an order for the mats and I had them the next day since they receive 2 or 3 deliveries a day. I'm glad you like ebay and thanks for the ebay tutorial, i've only been buying and selling on ebay for over 5 years now. :roll:

I tried to get it from my Dealer the day I bought the car. They didnt have it and didnt think they would have it anytime soon. So at least I still got it from a SCION Dealer.
