i wanted to get some different floor mats. u know like the carpet floor mats always get rocks and dirt in them making them nasty. not always though, but im sayin i would like to get away from this. i have found some nice, perfect condition mats from a 3gee. they are the rubber ones so i could spray them off easyly. SO SHOULD I GET EM? i can probley get em for about $8. complete front and back seat.

I don't know. My original factory mats still look good. I had to get a vinly heel pad from an upholstery shop and glue it down on the driver's side where my heel wore a hole in the mat, but other than that the mats look practically new after almost 14 years.

I guess it helps that they are brown (Honda calls it "red")

I use rubber ones in the winter and when it's really wet out in the spring... keeps em looking good.. and from STINKING! I have had a helluva time trying to get those things smelling good again.

I guess it's easier when you're in Texas. It almost never snows and doesn't even rain that much.

I think the "Weather Tech" type mats would be really good if you live where there is a lot of wintery stuff. Of course, the floor mats are the leat of your worries living in the "rust belt."

well i got the floor mats. they are like dark gray or black. i put armor all on them. tomorrow, or technically today, i will get to see how they look now. hopefully new looking. i will get my car back in the morning and get to put em in. they say accord on them. i think they will look great, and be easy to clean cuz i always get mud that makes dirt clods and rocks on my floor mats. oh ya, i almost forgot. i got them from the junk yard. i said will u take $8, the guy says not u can have them. i say how about $5. he just let me have em for free. i guess he only takes money for stuff like body parts, engine, etc. so i got lucky. i have "new" floor mats, and dont forget my cash that i need to get more important stuff for old 3gee.
