The new floor mats came in. Color is off a tiny bit but I guess they will do. One other issue is the inside eyelet on the drivers side is in the wrong place for an RC. The mat doesn't move around at all though so I might see if I can find one and plug it from the back to cover the hole. I'll probably only run these in the summer and keep the Huskys for the sloppy winter months. Thanks for Mike in Tn for heads up on the mats.

Looks good, I think the inside eyelet may be off on mine also...I haven't tried to hard yet since I still need to vacuum

Interesting, That seems like pretty big design flaw. I'm not sure if we can buy the eyelet from Ford parts. I'm going to start looking though.

If you just want the part that goes into the mat, its one piece, so just trim off the clip portion.

Yes, perfect...Thanks!

I kind of wish the mats had covers like the Husky's do. At least the on this color the open holes look a bit unfinished.

I hear ya. On open hole, even with a somewhat tight plug in it can still let some moisture in.

Mike, I'm sitting here at a restaurant waiting for my wife to pick up some food. I decided to mess with my mat a little - I picked up the mat under the gas paddle & pulled it forward a little bit, then the hole lined up perfectly...

I'm thinking mine was off by a couple inches. I'll take a closer look. I don't care for the manufactures website the way it seems to just send you to Amazon.

Perhaps I ordered the wrong ones or the peg placement is different on a RC. It almost seems like when I bought the Huskys they were different for an RC, I can't remember for sure. Will have to research it a little more.

No problem Mike! Wait till you see how easily they clean up. I have muddied mine up a few times already and just wiped them clean with a wet rag.
