Not after posting it to the Internet.

Where you been? I've been advocating them since I installed my first set in 1994.

I was there: Had that size on split rims in 1988. The tires were perfect, the rims less so.

The long awaited floor mat is here! Roger, you've outdone yourself. Can't wait to get it in my truck.

Shots of the prototype installed for those that didn't see it before. No significant deviation to production version from prototype (just some minor cosmetic improvements) check out the details! Love mine!

Out with the old, in with @Racer65's new floor mat. It fits within a few mm. Incredible.

Looks awesome! It appears you can pull the mat just a little bit forward so it clears the pillar properly. See my shot above.

Yes, I think some adjustment will align that corner. It's also worth mentioning that the original mat was never a Lexus-like fit. The gaps to the edge of the door is "factory", as shown below:

@Racer65 any chance of making the 1968-9/1971 and 9/1971 to 9/1977 windshield washer bottle?

I think the Cruiser Corps universal bottle is similar to the original design, and very well priced.

Beautiful. I'm loving my electric power steering, by the way. It's a game changer.

One thing that's not factory about the mat is the material. Modern PVC is so much nicer. It won't dry rot and disintegrate like the original mat. When a high grade is chosen as we've done, it really looks and feels surreal. As an aside, I've seen vendors touting their PVC mat as "near bullet proof". That's fine but not the feel you want. High quality PVC shouldn't feel like cardboard!

I was so upset that I may have unintentionally disparaged Roger's work that I got out of bed, cleaned the rocks out from behind the pillar, adjusted the mat...and it's perfect.

Thank you for bringing this project to fruition. It is the nicest 40th birthday present I could've gotten my truck.

Please make one (floor mat) for a 1971

No worries! Just want to make sure the customer is taken care of.

Not sure, did they ever make PS for RH 40s and minitruck?

RHD 40's yes they did

I hope ther will be a gas tank in cab version of the mat Roger.
