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.

A quick word about the fundamental advantage of custom-designed floor mats

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.
