Default Husky xact fit floormats poor fit....

I bought some new floormats for my truck a couple weeks ago. I did alot of reading and it seemed like i found a majority of people more happy with husky over weathertech. They are very nice but it does bug me how poor the drivers floormat fits. There is a pretty big gap, a finger or 2, between the floor mat and the console. The passenger side fits perfect. The back is the full coverage and it fits pretty close to perfect. It had a wrinkle where it seems like it was to wide but it looks like it will flatten out over time and once it heats up some.

I don't know if there's a way to take the studs up on the drivers side to make it fit correctly but unless it does it won't fit right. Just my 2 cents. I may try some weathertech eventually.

Did you put it out in the sunlight for a while to let it flatten out? I bought maxliner mats and they fit great. Are thicker too than weathertec. I’ve never had husky’s so I can’t compare to them. If you end up returning the huskys, check out maxliners.

If you get out Denver way let me know. I would be happy to trade you my Weathertech's for your Husky's .

After ordering them and installing them and a while later, yep my fault, The WeatherTech liners seem hard and slick to me. More plastic like. The Husky mats seem rougher and not slick. More rubber like.

If I had to do it again I would go with the Husky ones. My weathertech's do fit good however.

This isn't really helpful... those fit **way** better than the weathertech's I had in my 2010. My weathertechs were off by inches. 2" in places. And they weren't helpful at all after I contacted them about it. I should have returned them.

I ended up going with the Husky's in my 2015 and am much happier with the fit.

Mine fit perfectly in my 2015 and I plan on moving them to my 2018. Have you tried sliding the posts over a bit? There’s some wiggle room. Try grabbing the posts and moving them over a bit.

What helped mine was I heated them with a heat gun and put weight on them so they would cool in place and that made a big difference.

My x-act Husky driver side needed to be massaged into place the first time to engage the alignment "*****". After that first time, they fit x-act.

I also had the wrinkle in the back, from the liner being folded up in the box which will go away. Now it lays perfectly flat. The fronts also fits perfect.
