Why Should I Spend My Hard-Earned Money On Floor Mats?
Floor mats help shield your upholstery from everyday wear-and-tear and keep your interior in pristine condition. Driving with a set of floor mats under your feet can:
- Protect against unpleasant stains that harm the appearance and value of your vehicle
- Stop spilt sodas, fumbled coffees and mishandled snacks from staining your carpet
- Provide year round protection against even the most severe weather conditions
- Trap mud, water, road salt and sand before it gets ground into your flooring
- Prevent wear, snags and rips caused by foot friction
Best of all, every floor mat that AutoAnything carries is either custom-designed or semi-custom designed for a perfect fit in your vehicle.
Most of AutoAnything's floor mats are custom-designed for the exact year, make and model of your vehicle. They provide maximum coverage for your vehicle without covering up any of your floor controls, like that gas tank release lever that sees way too much action.
Keep in mind, custom-design does not mean merely matching those 1-size-fits-all stock floor mats that came with your vehicle. Our floor mats give you a precise fit that is arguably better than the cookie-cutter, low grade car mats that your dealer gave you.
Our floor mats and floor liners come either as a single 1-piece or a 2-piece design. While most mats for your front seats are 2-piece designs, some trucks with flat floorboards and without a 4 wheel drive shifter use a 1-piece setup. In the backseat, the mats are usually 1 continuous piece that rides from door to door. You should note, though, that neither design offers a fundamental advantage over the other. Both styles provide outstanding protection for your flooring.
Two of our floor mats, the Husky Heavy-Duty Floor Mats and the Weathertech Floor Mats, are semi-custom-designed. What this means is that these particular floor mats fit snugly in your vehicle, and in various other makes and models, too. Just as GM and Ford reuse the same floor plan in multiple cars, trucks and SUVs, so Husky and Weathertech follow suit. These floor mats are anything but the dreaded 1-size-fits-all floor mats that Wal-Mart is trying to pawn off on its unsuspecting customers. They still fit expertly, and the manufacturers have over 50 patterns to match your floor with great accuracy.
Quick Tip
Keeping Your Floor Mats and Floor Liners Sparkling Clean
All Weather Floor Mats:
When leaves, dirt and gravel start building up on your all weather floor mats, the fastest cleaning technique is simply to pull them out and give them a quick shake. Of course, a once over with a vacuum cleaner also works well.
If sodas, coffees or juice boxes spill on your all weather floor mats, just rinse them off with your garden hose. The water will wash away any stickiness, but remember to take them out of your car first.
Floor Liners:
Because of the floor liner�s larger size and tighter fit, the best way to clean them is with a vacuum. That way, you don�t have to pull them out every time you track in some sand, mud or muck.
For stickier messes, you can give your floor liner a backyard bath with a garden hose. If you prefer leaving it in place, you can also use any standard household cleaners. Be sure to test for colorfastness first, though.
Carpet Floor Mats:
Care for your carpet floor mats the same as your home carpet. A quick pass with your vacuum is about all it takes to keep them looking their best.
Accidents can happen—drinks topple over, mud gets tracked in and children get car sick. The best way to deal with these types of mishaps is by spot-treating the affected area with standard carpet cleaners.
