    Just recently I shelled out for these 3D Mats which have an adhesive mat the sits under them.









    I love them, they keep all the debris contained. Remove, shake off and rinse and refit.



    I know it seems like a waste of time considering the floor is already rubber, but being a manual, I would have worn through the factory floor by now.
    Are these from TruFit and do they side around on the vinyl floor? My mate had them in his ranger but he had carpet flooring then the mats

    We do have Weather Tech in Australia but cost a arm and a leg, did you consider any other brand's.

    Yes, they are TruFit 3D Maxtrac.

    3D Maxtrac Floor Mats

    Usually they are attached via the factory fittings. For vinyl floors, they sell an adhesive mat that sticks to the floor holding the mats in place like they would grip on carpet.

    There were a number of other options I looked at but they all required holes to punched in the factory flooring. Now technically, I would never see that hole again once the appropriate fittings were installed, but still did not want to splicing into my perfect floors. (Yes, I'm nuts! )

    Cleaned off about 1,500 miles of bugs as we have had a few road trips since she was washed up last. Looking good for nearly 51k miles on her already.

    I just finished claying this beast. I started with a claymitt, but wound up with a claybar. Nothing works quite like a claybar.What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Received GG RW and spray bottle from AG. The Griot’s RW works a lot better than ONR in terms of no streaking and much more slick. Awesome stuff.

    Felt less grabby. ONR wasn’t grabby per se but it did streak more. Opti-Clean is both grabby and streaky.
