The genuine mats fit perfectly within the foot wells, the driver's mat is held in place by clips, and all mats are less likely to slide out of place. If you are willing to part with $100, you may want to consider these tailored mats. These mats (of similar design) are available at Repco as well, which is sometimes have 20% off (yesterday). They have a a single long rear mat that covers the centre part, whereas the genune ones come as two separate pieces and does not cover the centre part. Rubber mats are for people who like to get the cars muddy, as it is easier to clean, by just hosing it down. thanks for the advice. will keep posted on what I am going with.
