I would go with the B-Pillar Appliques. They are easy to "install"... just make sure that they are on straight the first time, because they don't come off. I have a few photos in my profile if you want to take a quick look. Be careful not to pay too much... I paid $60 not knowing that I could have found them for $40!

TRDSparks.com seems not to have the floor mats, at least not that I could find either via browsing or via googling their site.

maybe $145 isn't *too* bad from the dealer after all. hm.
My set from Scion didn't come with a cargo mat but they were $145. They are the all weather mats that come apart, so maybe they're regular mats with a cargo mat for that price..... Not sure though
Dude you got ripped off. It says clearly on Scion's website and should say in the dealers showroom that it's a floor/cargo mat package for $145.

Some dealers don't even realize that sometimes because it's listed seperately in their parts computer, which makes no friggin sense. It took 3 phone calls to them to get it all straightened out and I finally proved I was right, though they only charged me $120 for them all :D

If I were you I'd call the dealer back if the purchase wasn't too long ago...
I will definately do that.....

I did not receive a cargo liner with the floor mats I got from the dealer and I payed the full 145 $ for mine. Is this something that I should go back and request. I bought the car in early january perhaps it is too late.

you should have gotten the cargo liner as well. they should give you one whether you bought it in January or yesterday....it is part of the package for $145.00.

The website will not allow you to order it, but it can be done. Just run the power wire up to the dome light, instead of down the a pillar's (wear the side airbags are, hence the incompat. issue). It's done that way on mine

ur right about how they can be combined.... but u stated the common misconception that the head airbags are in teh pillars They actually are mounted directly above the windows in the headliner. The pillars are completely empty inside except for an occasional wire.

hey, on the floor mats/cargo mats thing? The scion web site lists the hybrid (carpet/all-weather) floor mats with a carpet mat, but there's a separate listing for the "cargo liner".

The scion site, under the tC accessories area describes the "cargo liner" as being canvas and vinyl, and is more elaborate than the "cargo mat", which is simply carpet.

The floor mats are a different item. The carpet just comes out. That way you can take it out and still use the rubber mats when the weather is nasty. The cargo mat and liner are for the hatch area. Is this what you were wondering about?

nah, I'm not wondering about the distinction between the floor/cargo mats and cargo liner so much myself. I just posted that last one to clarify that there is a diff between the two ('cause the last few posts seemed to confuse them).

My question about the floor mat/cargo mat combination is that the dealer lists them for $145, but McGeorge's entry for the floor mats ($79) does not mention the cargo mat, so I was just wondering if anyone knew whether McGeorge's item does in fact include the carpet mat for the cargo area.

Default Floor mats aftermarket...maybe not worth it

Hey all, I just got an email back from McGeorgeparts.com.

From them, you would have to get the Black carpet cargo mat ($32, part number PT206-21041-02) plus the 4-piece floor mat set ($79, part number PT206-21060-02) plus $11 shipping to me for a total of $121 to match the dealers' $145 deal. Still, maybe saving $23 (plus tax) is saving money... though warranty stuff (what with them wearing through so quickly) might argue for just going with the dealer....

Mud guards give the TC a "wider" look and are easy to install

Do the mudguards work with the ground effects kit?
