Anyone have these installed that can share a picture? I've done some searching, and didn't really come up with much.

I'm specifically looking for the classic (carpet) ones, preferably in black. Some of the pics I found online make the black look like an odd color.

And since I know I'll get the inevitable recommendation: I'm not interested in Weathertech or Husky liners. I've had them both, and I'm not a big fan of either. I really just don't like the look and feel of rubber / plastic mats in general, but like the protection they offer. Years ago, I had a set of carpet Catch All floor liners in a Yukon I owned, and they were the best mats I've owned. These Maxpiders look to be pretty similar.

Funny that you mention this. I literally ordered a set of the Kagu mats yesterday. I bought weathertech mats a year or so ago when I bought the 4runner and immediately sent them back. I don't love the hard plastic either so I put some generic Goodyear mats in from Costco.

I should get them thursday. I'll put some pics up. I assume the Kagu and Classic have the same shape just different material on top.

I guess these aren't all that popular, which doesn't come as any big surprise.

Jetboy - did you get your mats yet?

Interested in seeing these too. I did some looking a few weeks ago and couldn't find anyone with pics / reviews either. They certainly look promising.

Glad you brought this back up to the front. Yes. And they are exactly what I wanted. - excuse the dirty carpet.

These are the version with the rubber top surface. It's much softer than the hard plastic that the maxliners and similar are made of. But not as soft as normal rubber floor mats. Something like a hard rubber. I can't think of anything that's similar. Maybe sort of like the dash cover on the 14+.

The mats are flexible and have almost like a velcro type material on the bottom. Once in place they aren't going anywhere. But it's not hooked little spikes like real velcro - so it won't be hard to take out.

I bought max liners and returned them because I didn't like the hard plastic feel. Between the two - I'll take these without question. They are a higher quality feeling product. If I didn't need to wash mud out of them regularly, I'd go with carpet. I'll probably buy the carpet ones for my wife's car.

Classic mats look good

How is the "3D" emblem attached? Does it appear removable with out damaging/ leaving a hole?

I haven't looked closely at it. It's sits back behind where your feet sit and basically out of sight when you're in the car, so I didn't try to take it off. But I think it's just two plastic pegs that go through the mat. Could probably cut it off with minimal effort and leave two small holes.

Hmm pegs that sucks. Like the idea of the classic mats and your kagu look good also

Thanks for the pics - I think I'm pretty much decided on the carpet version.

Does the passenger side mat also have the holes for the OEM attachments?

In one of the few posts I found about these, the poster's driver side mat was like yours, yet the passenger side just had humps molded into the mat to go over the OEM attachment points. Seemed a little strange.

The passenger side has one clip and one hump. My guess is that there must be some model that has only one passenger side clip so they can use the same part on both. It doesn't move either way.

The advantage of doing humps vs the OEM attachments would be that the mat would hold a large spill of liquid. Otherwise the liquid is going to go through the holes for the OEM attachments. But if you're going to use one, you might as well go with two.

I'll run down to my parking garage and take a pic.

The emblem is held on by two rivets on the bottom.

Here's a pic. They're pretty big rivets.

I bought these mats first thing when I got my new 4R in October. They have held up greatly, and I couldn't be happier. I bought them because I liked how the material aesthetic was very similar to that of the dash, and I also thought they looked to have a good amount of tread. I've put mine through mud, rain, and just general wear. They do show dirt quickly, but they also wash easily. I will post pictures when I have time.

I have the carpet version on the way, should be here early next week. I'll post pics when I get them.
