Who has all season floor mats?

I'm about to order some floor mats and was wondering about the all season ones.

Are they slippery? Will my feet sleep anymore than they would with carpet mats? Since I don't have mats yet in my car (obviously) the only thing to protect my floor is that little plastic piece that comes with the car and my feet slip a lot with it.

Do the anchors need to be installed or will the driver mat move around too much without it?

Anyone have any photos of what their all season mats look like in the car?

Thanks in advanced

I have the all season floor mats. it was the first thing i bought for my car. i think they're really high quality. really easy to clean...all i do is spray em down and they're good to go. you will need to install the front floor mats because they will slide around but the rear ones don't need to be. i don't think they're slippery at all. i think there's been threads about this before with pics...that's how i ended up buying them.

I have them too. They're not slippery at all.... almost sticky actually. Definately install the driver's mat as instructed. Sorry, no pics.

Is it made of the same material and thickness as the cargo tray?

I didn't install the hooks for the driver side but it still works. It moves around a little but not enough to get in the way of driving. I just didn't want to cut the carpet.

Thanks, guys!

Found them cheapest on ebay for $99.95 and no shipping so I went ahead and ordered 'em.

It's a must have for where i live, they are thicker than the cargo tray. I cut my carpet to, no big deal just a little square

Yeah, I was wondering the texture too. I want them to be somewhat soft on the feet (Rubbery), and not hard plastic.

Are they more rubber or more hard plastic?

Yes they are more rubbery. I like them I whish the passenger had hold downs like the drivers but other than that I like them.

The mats are great and you install with clips so they don't slide all over the place. The only time my feet have slipped on them as after I detail the interior and use a product to make them shine.

Remember when rubber mats were "cheap" and carpet was an upgrade?

Yes, I negotiated all-season mats into my purchase, and am glad to have done so.

I wish they had been installed when I went to Mexico a couple of weeks ago! Sand everywhere!

It is only the driver's mat which has the anchors installed (lawyers!)

I've teased with the idea of purchasing a set of the carpet mats from Honda for summer use. I kinda of
miss the fabric mats during the summer months and how easy they are to just sweep over. Plus they look
really nice!

I love the all seasons but missed the feel of regular mats. When I bought my extended warranty from Bernardi the sent me a $50 coupon which I couldn't let go unused. anyway I bought the carpeted OEM mats for summer use and love them. I'm going to own my fit for a long time and thought the $30 for the summer mats was OK. The All seasons are superior especialy if you live in an area where weird stuff will hang on your shoes but they don't feel "right". Honda's carpet needs to be protected somehow! It's marginal at best!
