Default OEM All weather mats-2 lexus styles-anyone have pics?

guys,
After 6 years of having Nissan all weather mats in my Maxima I have realized that I cant live without them in my 2 month old gs430. I looked at sewell lexus parts online and saw a set for $100 and another set for $200. Has anybody on the forum seen both sets and does anyone have pics of either sets installed in a GS? Can anybody give a review of either set before I buy anything?


thanks in advance everybody!

mike

My OEM ones were just about $100. If you can get them without having to deal with recall, jump on it. It doesn't affect us as we have clips that hold the floormats in place anyways.

I have the OEM all season mats, front and back. I think they look great, and I think I like them enough to keep them on for all seasons and not bother putting the now ratty carpeted mats back in.

I never thought to take photos of them.

They look a lot like this...



But say GS, the GS logo looks better than the IS logo to me.

binaryjay.....are those the ones that seem to be affected by the recall or is thaat the higher end set that is around $200? I dont believe I knew that they had GS on them. I thought they just had lexus logo on them.


thanks guys for all the comments. Still wouldnt mind seeing pics of some installed and even some reviews from members that have had either set.

Probably not a recall but they are making the mats uniform across the board.

If you have an AWD McNeil Automotive in Downers Grove IL has very nice all season mats to offer. They actually mfg many of the mats that are in cars today. They make these digital fit mats that are nicer, imo, then the OEM (new or old style). The only bad is that is for the AWD only. All but the drivers side mat would work in the RWD models. I would have them in my car if they mfg for RWD. I have a set in my wifes new car and with the snow and everything I havent had a better set to date.
