Car Floor Mats, Cargo Liners and Trunk Mats

Which seating layout does the cargo liner cover?

Cargo liners are cut for one model, a range of years and a seating layout. A seven-seater with the third row up has a small load area, while a five-seater has a large one, and titles name this. Order by the full model name, including hybrid versions where the floor differs. Molded TPE liners follow the floor and have a raised edge that holds spilled liquid. Retractable cargo covers are matched by model and year as well.

Edges, material and the driver-side safety check

A tray-style mat with a raised lip traps mud, snow and spills; a flat mat is easier to trim. In the driver footwell, use the retention hooks or posts so the mat cannot slide under the pedals, and never lay a new mat over an old one. Large PVC containment mats and foam interlocking tiles are for garage and gym floors, not for vehicles, so check the dimensions in the title before ordering.

Questions about Car Floor Mats, Cargo Liners and Trunk Mats

Can I trim a universal floor mat to fit?

Many are made to be trimmed along marked lines with a sharp utility knife. Cut a little at a time, test the fit and keep the pedal area clear. A mat that moves under the pedals is dangerous.

Do cargo liners work with folded seats?

Some cover only the load floor, while others extend up the seatbacks. Read the description or dimensions to see which, and whether the liner has a flap that lies over the bumper edge.

How should I clean a TPE mat?

Hose it down and scrub with mild soap and a soft brush, then dry it before refitting. Skip silicone dressings and polishes, which can make the surface slippery under your feet.
