Default All weather mats

Hi everyone....I just got my xB yesterday...'06 TCM. Found one in stock in Illinois....dealers in the Indianapolis area have 4 to 6 weeks waiting time. The dealer had a black one in stock, I mentioned that I wanted a TCM, he called me back by the end of the day that we found one, done deal...it came with 150 miles because it was a dealer trade. I'm really enjoining the car.

Anyway, I'm looking to buy the all weather mats, the rubber ones, to avoid snow to get in the carpet mats....my wife has a Matrix and it works great for the winter.

Any suggestions where I can find one that fits the xB ?

I am using these. They hold a quart and a half of water.
Empty with a shake. Very protective and easy to clean.

I say try auto parts stores and try to find the ones that are real deep with all the groves. They hold a bunch of water and come in alot of different colors. I think they are made by rubbermaid. Grats on the new box Bro!
Here is one link that I goggled http://www.autosportcatalog.com/inde...d=584&addcar=1
They are pricey but work good and the are a custom fit. Good luck and happy holidays

WalMart has all-weather mats in several colors and clear. Trim to fit (top), and way cheaper than auto parts stores. Think I paid less than $20 for all 4 mats. I have them in 2 of my cars for winter.

I've used these mats in all my cars for the last 4 or 5 years, they are great!

I bought two fronts and two rears for The CamoBox, but it looks like I need fronts in the rear also.[/img]

I second these. They fit quite well and require only some slight trimming.

You can get them in either black or tan.

The part number for the xB (front only) is W31.

I found some cheap universal mats (look like a mix between a floor mat and a welcome mat) that fit perfectly up front. I put them down over top of the stock mats to keep them clean... They had them in gray and black at Target.

Yes, they are very high quality. BTW, ignore the red stripe in the pic. It's not actually on the mats. Not sure why it's shown that way.

I prefer the rubber mats to the carpeted mats.

Late at night, just before falling asleep, when I have clarity on world problems I fear wet carpeted mats will absorb the water all the water, slush and snow I deposit there, and later when it thaws it will provide a constant source of moisture in the car.

With the deep groove rubber mats you can shake out the pool of water, driveway spooge, amphibians and sea monkeys.

I have these same mats in both my xA and xB. They are great. For the xB, I bought 4 of the front mats. I only had to trim a little off of the one on the rear passanger side.
