Default Any good options for all-weather rubber floor mat?

No, I don't want some cheap Auto Zone special, I want one that is made to fit the xD and will stay in place, maybe one that even has the hole for the clips as well. All other Scions have an all-weather mat but this model...

Anyone have a good source for a custom fit mat?

I'm also looking for a good custom fit all weather floor mat set. I have some $35 (insert department store name here) specials and hey don't even cover the whole floor. Universal fit mats just don't work for me.

www.autoanything.com has a few options but I'm just not sure if I want to spend $75-$100 on a set of mats that might not fit the way I'd like them to. I really wish Toyota made some for the XD, I'd gladly pay $100-$150 for some OEM rubber mats.

Default mats

Check out LL Bean car mats. They have a nice one in grey. I plan on getting those when I get an XD in the Spring.

I second this. I bought mine and they are doing really well through the winter/spring-like weather we've had so far. They are incredibly heavy though, and you can trim them down to a customized fit.

The costco all weather mats are awesome. The highlight is that they only run $20. or so. The downside is that they are quite heavy. I recommend using this and taking out the carpet mat. With both, it's a bit thick and may cause issues with the pedals. Alternatively, you can trim the areas where the pedals may touch.

-I spoke with weathertech and they wont have something until the spring......not really helpful for winter use...

-With that said until theirs come out i picked up a set of michelin heavy duty rubber mats from wal-mart of all places for $29.99..

these mats are money and could easily hold a cup or two of water...they will suffice for now

The bottom does have the little 'spikes' in it, so it'll stay put for the most part. You may have to adjust it every so often though.

I have a set from Sam's/CostCo and they are fine. You can look around for a a custom set if you like, but these are huge, rather heavy so they don't move around, and even have segments you can cut off if you want to "customize" their fit.

I was skeptical at first but I got some at autozone (25 bucks for all four) and they fit great, don't slide around or anything. normally i don't go for universal ones but i'm very happy with these

While we're on the topic of floormats, I recommend against the cheap recycled material mats. In my area they're sold at Menards and Farm & Fleet. They fit pretty well, though I had to cut the drivers' side mat around the foot rest so it didn't fold when I put down the clutch. Trouble is, they wear terribly. After a few weeks they show noticable wear, and at this rate they will likely crumble / wear through in just a few months. I liked the idea of using recycled materials, but they just wear out too quickly.
