I talked to Amory at Slee yesterday since I was looking to get a set, and he took my credit card over the phone and brought them to me on my side of town after work since I live so far and he lives close to me! That's customer serviceThanks for the tip - I didn't realize Slee carried them in stock.
In terms of fit, I just took them out of the box and laid them flat so they unfold. I'm steam cleaning the carpets tomorrow or Saturday then I'll install them to see how they work. I bought the first and second row, digital fit.
Amory is awesome like that.
Can I come over and clean my carpets too???
Ya that was very cool of him and thanks for the heads up! Apparently my girlfriend let her parents use my steam cleaner so I'll be taking it somewhere unfortunately
I have the Niftys in my truck and bought a set for the LX but didn't end up using them because the tan color is just too wrong for the ivory interior. I test fitted them and they seemed good. I don't know if the LCs are more tan than the LXs.
At any rate, the Niftys are a good product IMO and I prefer the carpeted finish of them. The set in my truck is great. That said, I'll probably be posting the Niftys in the classifieds soon.
Tan interior. Black weathertechs. I wouldn't have my floor mats any other color. They go great with my black and beige-ish wet okole seat covers.
I have the catch-alls and the color matches find in the tan Land Cruisers. Very pleased with them.
Agreed: The weathertech "digital-fit floor liners" tend to roll-up around the edges and look like plastic bags spread out on the floor. They are overengineered (for floor mats), and do not look like they belong on the floor of the truck.

The weathertech "all-weather floor mats" are the way to go. Same company, different product. The all weather floor mats are pretty expensive for floor mats, but they really look like they are part of the truck. They are heavy and lay flat on the floor like a floor mat should. They can contain a large volume of mud or sand, and I can personally guarantee that these mats will capture and hold a full 16 ounces of coffee. They have a raised lip around the edge to keep snow and meltwater (or coffee) from running on to the carpet. very high quality durable rubber-

Or you can get perfectly good floor mats from wal-mart for 20 bucks....

However, wal-mart does not deliver and their customer service is not what it used to be...
I'm with you 100%
$17, 4 years old, they work for me
Look at how nasty that carpet is though. Not a problem with the digital fits.

I've had both (two sets of each and a set of Husky Liners) and the All Weather mats wear out where your heels rest while driving. They are good but I find the Digital Fit better. Any rolling up on the edges is due totally to "operator error" getting in and out of the truck (I have a wife and two young children, and no issues). Same reason certain people wear out the outer seat bolsters; they don't know how to get in and out without doing so. In either case, it's not the product's fault.
As far as how they look, that's personal preference.

My experience has been that they are super worth the price. Driver's carpet totally covered with the digital fit.
I bought mine from Amazon, did not even think of Christo..Sorry Christo..
Also, I have kids in the back and I picked up the clear plastic covers for the back of the seats. 20.00 for a pair of 2. These really save the back of the seat from the dirty feet and saves the netting from being ruined.
About a month after i got the Weather Techs and the plastic seat covers, my 3 year old hurled behind me and I would say these two items saved our rig.. About 85% of my 3 year old's throw up hit the plastic over and dropped into the back floor mat.
Great purchase, don't skimp on this if you have kids.

I finally put mine in today at lunch and snapped a couple of not great quality pics, but it gives you an idea of what the tan looks like. I'm pleased with the coverage over the carpet and think it looks nice. They're a little spendy, but if it keeps the carpet looking nice over time it will be worth it.

Ordered mine today. I only got the fronts and the cargo mat. Figured I didn't need the rear since no one hardly ever sits back there.
I installed mine today. I'm impressed with the tight fit. Anyone know how to fix the drivers side retainer clip that holds the mat in place? Mine was torn out when I purchased it.
got em love em, used to have Husky liners (also proudly made in USA) but Weathertechs have much better fit!
I bought a complete set of Weathertech All-Weather in Grey.
I had to wait for more then a month before I finally got them. They were out of stock.
They arrived today and I installed them. The second row mats needed some trimming bit I am overall happy with the result. My previous mats were one from an Acura, one from a Land Rover and one piece of an Audi.

Interesting - the picture on the box is the digital fit but the ones you installed are not. But I like the second row better.
