Should take them down to a self service car wash and use the pressure washer there...

Here are a few pictures of my new mats. The turnaround time was about 2 weeks, even though they say it will take about a month. Delivery was supposed to be 1st week in December. The fit is good, quality is good for the price also. My only issue I had was the tabs were not high enough to lock the mat in place by the gear shifter and the door step and it cannot tuck far enough under the rear seat as there are the 2 clips for the seat bottom there. Other than that I am very pleased with the fit and function. I will see how it holds up through the winter and weather changes in spring. But for now I am happy. I will give my thoughts after a couple months of use.
Can you describe the material used? How do you think it will hold up to daily use?

Sorry guys, reviving this from the dead. Completely forgot I had posted this. These mats are pretty durable. I did not get the one that comes with the additional mat on top, but these have held up good during the winter and now spring. I did not take out my OEM floor mats, which was suggested to do. What I did find is that the driver side mat sort of pushes forward when I get in the car and pushes up against the gas pedal. I realized this one day when I floored the pedal and it took a long time to react. I then looked at the carpet and realized it was pushed up against the pedal. I think using some velcro may keep it from moving forward. I think if the backing was a bit firmer it would prevent movement.
I have seen other companies making these claiming that their backing is thicker/firmer. But for what I paid from Ebay/China, I am happy with what I have.
