#832 of 902 Re: Honda All Season Mats - Do They Work ? [ckennedy] by sebring95 Dec 11, 2007 (5:20 am)
Replying to: ckennedy (Dec 10, 2007 2:37 pm) I've not found any aftermarkets that have similar access to the 2nd row storage. The OEM mats are cut in both directions so you can open the "port hole" or the entire hatch. I'm not generally a fan of OEM products, but for what we needed these were the way to go. We use that storage for dvd's/ammo/wifes purse/etc. and tend to get in there a lot while driving too. But I suppose if you tend to track a ton of snow/water in you might want something more aggressive. We try to knock the snow from our boots before getting in and that seems to keep water from pooling up. But I'm not extremely worried about keeping the carpet mint or anything, just don't want it to look like it's an old beater.

Replying to: angelchicago (Dec 10, 2007 7:15 pm) Thank you both for the input. I am very anal about my vehicles and was just wondering to about how much i would use the storage area. This July I will have a 4 year old that will be in the 3rd row a 2 year old that will sit behind the driver seat and an infant that will go behind the passenger seat. I put the middle seat down below for now so the pass thru is avaliable. Trying to do some damage control before July so I think weathertech is for me since i can't control everybody jumping in at once. I could always store the seat in the garage and see how much i use the storage area. i just purchased the van so have not used this area other then to store the seat. I guess going forward my needs could change and i will need to use this area more.

i had weathertech mats in my previous odyssey. they worked very well - i recommend them.   for what its worth though, whoever makes weathertech mats also makes the honda mats.   get the "trunk"liner - it is very worth it   for the person looking for cross bars, depending on what you want to do with them, i would recommend looking at thule or yakima. there are whole systems based on their bars and you don't have to look for special clamps that fit just the honda.   Replies to this message: ckennedy (Dec 13, 2007 8:11 pm)

Replying to: hangaralf1 (Dec 12, 2007 4:02 pm) what happens to the trunk liner when not in use? Do you store it in the garage? Pretty soon I will be needing 3 rows.

If you are talking about the box one that fits in the well, it stays in the van. The third row fits inside it.   Actually, rereading your post, it seems you must have the mat that covers the 3rd row when it is folded down. I don't have one, but I expect you have to remove it to put up the 3rd row. Replies to this message: sebring95 (Dec 21, 2007 5:37 am)
#837 of 902 Honda Accessories - Rearview Mirror W/rearview Camera Display by buler Dec 21, 2007 (2:16 am)
Last evening I was at a dealer show room to see 07 EXL /RES; Sales agent discouraged buying back-up sensors as an additional accessory, but advised to wait for 2 months; Honda is adding Rearview Mirror W/rearview Camera Display as an accessory option.    Can any one confirm this?

Replying to: buler (Dec 21, 2007 2:16 am) Buy a 2008 year instead of add as an accessory to a 2007. Standard on 2008: Rearview Mirror with Rearview Camera Display (EX-L and EX-L with RES)   Note that Navi models (Rearview Camera Display on the screen).

Replying to: ocuihs (Dec 21, 2007 4:10 am) Also you get more 2008 standard features (some price increases over 2007).   See what's new for 2008 here http://automobiles.honda.com/odyssey/whats-new.aspx

Replying to: stickguy (Dec 16, 2007 7:26 pm) I have an Ody with the backup camera built into the NAV (large screen). I would also recommend the backup sensors in addition if you're concerned about backing safely. The backup camera has a lot of limitations due to sunlight wash, dirt on the camera, rain/snow on the camera, and a delay due to the system having to boot (on nav models). I'm guessing the screen is also very small on these models with it built into the rearview camera. The sensors are passive, in that they alert you to potential problems and you don't have to directly look at the screen.   I originally thought the sensors were redundant since it has a backup camera, but IMHO the sensors are far more useful as a safety feature. The Ody is just as big as a full-size SUV and has a lot of blind-spots particularly with a load of people on board.
#841 of 902 Floor Mats again by nash1234 Dec 24, 2007 (10:19 pm)
I saw the threads about Weathertechs being better than the Honda all season floor mats. I went to look at both autoanything.com and weathertech.com. They have the same Weathertech mats but weathertech.com is much cheaper, but they charge shipping and tax whereas aa does not charge either. I guess I will ask for a pricematch at aa.   But my question is, did you opt for the cheaper all-season mats or the WeatherTech Extreme-Duty Floor Liners? Is it worth the extra cost?
