I ordered the weathertech digital fit liners for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd row/cargo area in black.
Weathertech is adamant that the 3rd row doesn't work with the power 3rd row seats. Based on some searches I figured I'd try it out and see for myself.
You will need to cut out the 4 anchor points. I removed the plastic anchor covers, and used them as a template ontop of the weathertech. This allowed me to have some "lip" around those anchors. A pairing knife worked fine.
The length is good, the front just tucks under the 2nd row for excellent protection, and the back sits right up to the tailgate.
Only issue: there are two side "wings" that get compressed by the seat shocks (see pics of one side down one side up. So far it doesn't seem to be a problem, but it would be easy to remove those from the weathertech as well, but loose the outter "lip"

One thing I don't like about the WT's is that they're slippery as hell...stuff tends to move around a lot in the back. I fixed that with a sheet of 1/4" neoprene cut to fit in the WT. You can also use cheap indoor carpet.

jacal - This is exactly what I am doing as well. I have the same black digiliners in the front two rows and will cut the cargo area to fit. Much better than ruining the carpet back there!

Yes, the Weather Techs work great with the third row seat when the cutouts are made as described, in the LX 2016, as I've said on other threads. The "wings" noted that go under the third row seats folded up are not a problem for me, and don't seem that noticeable. I prefer these over the Lexus mats because the "lip" around the outer edges, which catches and holds melting snow and other liquids.

They have the same "hang-up" on 2010, which is what I have. Not year specific, but it begs the question as to why they would produce something specific to a car model and then state that it wont fit. This is especially true since ALL LXs have powered seats in the US. (scratching my head...)

I scored with a set from on eBay. OEM used and work fine! All seats move they way they are supposed too. Most people are not aware that the second row moves, even if they move, I've not had a problem.
