One or two post floors? - Weathertech
1 - 20 of 26 Posts
I could wait until I take delivery to count the posts and order, but I understand there is a shipping delay for orders. If I can order now, I'd like to do so. It sounds as if the newer models are two post.
The Nissan mats do look good and I've seen a few pics. For me the main issues are mud and snow. The winter trays I have often end up with puddles of water in them. I can just pull them out and powerwash. Weathertech is the only thing I'v found that looks like it will allow me to do that and still contain a decent amount of water. The posts seem like a week spot that way though. I'll have to see what I can work out.

^--correct.
Ooops, missed the "soon to arrive".
Weps, you are taking delivery of a 2010?
Throw out what year you (will) have and I'm sure somebody would be happy to confirm the number of floor posts you'll have.
oh, yea. mine will be a 2010 CC. and i suspect a two post. 
the best price i can find is 117.95 shipped to the door direct from weathertech. that's for the front row only. there does not appear to be any discounting of these in the channel. some of the rubber mats can be had for less, but not the extreme.
i also came across the Husky liners. they didn't look too bad. the diamond plate pattern turned my off though. also, they don't offer the protection in the sill area. for me that makes a big difference.

Not a '10, but my '09 is two posts. Mine's an LE, but surely that doesn't play a role in the posts holding the floor mats in place.
I have Weathertech in mine and love them. Got them from AutoAnything.com with free shipping for the same price you quoted above.

well, that was fast. the mats arrived on the 26th. via fedex ground saturday delivery. i didn't request or expect them so quickly and was expecting a backorder delay.
i'd ordered the two front mats in grey and they were bagged inside a single box. taking them out of the box and cleaning up the packing took longer than installing them in the truck. it took about 15 seconds per mat with everything lining up as expected.
so far i'd have to say they have exceeded my expectations. it is a functional and good looking design. fit and finish is a consistent color and texture that has a quality look and feel. its a pliable, subtle matte that actually does look like an OEM product. it's not brittle or shiny and i can't imagine them chipping or cracking in cold weather.
even the red and black glossy weathertech logo works with the charcoal leather with red stitching in the pro-4x. there was a small amount of flashing around the mounting holes, but i didn't even bother to remove it.
compared to the husky liners, the nissan rubber, and another one or two brands that i encountered, these seem every bit worth the extra money. the only thing i'd even consider changing, might be some type of rubber grommet or seal around the mounting posts as a hedge against water seepage, but i'm not sure that is a realistic concern. it would take a lot of water to flood those areas.
how well they hold up to salt, mud, and if they stain easily remains to be seen. for now, and for a usa made product at a competitive price, i like them. if i can get some pics in the next few days i will.

I received my mats last night. Put them in and after one day they have proved their usefulness. Like previous posters have said, the fit and finish is really good. I went with black, maybe I should have got gray but I wasn't sure it would match the carpet.
