Got Me Elemmat and All Season Mats
So I got my Fit last weekend and immediately ordered an Elemmat, OEM All Season Floor Mats, and the Center Arm rest. Everything arrived today (College Hills Honda rocks!) I am satisfied with the purchases. For anyone curious the Elemmat seems to fit about about 96% correctly. I might actually end up trimming it a bit as it alllllllmost fits perfectly side to side in the back hatch. The material is sturdy and now I won't have to be paranoid about putting anything in the cargo area. As expected the OEM floor mats are 100% perfect, I expected four square shaped mats and actually had to look at the directions to figured out which ones went where when I opened the package and found 4 very oddly shaped things. I have to make the appt to get the armrest installed, I don't feel like attempting that on my own. I am also currently waiting on some blue LEDs for the interior from Atticus and I'll have a pretty good start going. I want to get a quote from my local audio/tint/custom shop on getting some sound deadening put in the doors and hatch and getting tint as well. Here are some pics of the Elemmat installed, sorry if someone has posted something similar before but I haven't seen them yet....
Also there is a picture of my rides together...[IMG] [/IMG]

I had Elemmats (front AND rear) for my Element (which I traded in on my Fit), and I really loved the quality. I'm curious about the Fit Elemmat, though. It's in two pieces, right: one for the cargo floor and the other for the seat backs when you fold them down? What do you do with the seat back portion when you don't have the seats folded down? Does it take up a lot of extra room in the cargo area? It seems like it would always be in the way. And it works only with both seats down, so what do you do if you fold down only one half?

Alright you made me curious myself and just took the pics. There is actually is enough room to tuck the other half under the seats, but I was hoping to be able to put it behind the legs so it couldn't roll around, I think it would be a tight fit trying to do that. But if you had it rolled with the velcro straps you might be able to secure it to the legs of the seat somehow so it couldn't roll forward. I dunno, I'll let you know how I actually end up using it. Here's some pics of how much room it takes up if placed in the hatch area with the seats up too.

Yikes--that thing is huge rolled up! I'd like to buy just the piece for the cargo floor and not have the seat-back piece at all. It takes up way too much room anywhere in the car, and if you leave it at home, you'd never have it when you need it. There's got to be another option. Anyone got a better idea?

If you really need to keep the ability to fold the seats independently with your mat, you could go with the JDM Honda Cargo Mat: http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate...rUrl=Translate:
