Thumbs down Rubber Floormat

Gotta say, I do not like giving bad reviews. Would much rather talk up a product I am happy with.

Four years ago I got a full size OEM-style rubber mat from Wes. He was out of stock and had it shipped to me from Brothers. Looked great, fit great, just minor trimming where the seat bolts to the floor. I recommended it on this board.

Pulled the seat out yesterday to install 3-point belts, and got a good look at the mat. Now I know it's not new but it is rotting out in a few places already. The OEM mat seemed to last nearly forever. The truck is rarely driven so excessive use & abuse are not an issue.

Seems to me the original mats were made of a much higher quality material, and the replacements -- at least the ones I have seen -- are junk by comparison. Would love to find high-quality mats that can last a long time.

Re: Rubber Floormat

Exactly why I chose to find used but pliable originals for my Blazer. Too many bad complaints about the quality of the repros.
