Skip the Honda mats, especially if you have to pay for them. They're trash and won't last 3 years. Muz and Rick have wonderful aftermarket mats that'll last a good long time (and cover the X-frame lumps).

Chazmo, I am thinking about this. Wondering though about group buys and shipping costs for Belgium.

Interesting. Well, ronver, I can only tell you that after < 3 years (partial year driving, too, due to winter), my stock mats were worn through and the S emblem was peeling off. Not impressive. The only thing I liked about the mats were that they were very light weight.

Muz's and Rick's are gorgeous items. I love mine. If you become a s2ki member, you can bang around the marketplace and see if anyone's selling / buying.

Best wishes!

So you switched after a couple years to other mats? Any wear on the non covered parts before the switch ? (I already have the stock mats, that's why I'm asking..).

ronver,

Well, with the stock mats my passengers used to get dirt, etc., on the carpet that covers the frame rail, but there was only some very slight wear on the carpet. On the driver's side, that's a good question. I'll pull up my Rick's mat tomorrow when I've got my car on the road and have a look.

Finally, had a chance to drive with top down for a short distance. It is still cold, just above freezing. I installed the tonneau cover but now have a problem because the left plug (or how do you call it), behind the driver seat roll bar is stuck. No matter what I try, I won't click off. So I can't remove the cover.

Any ideas.
