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.

Honda Accessories - Rearview Mirror W/rearview Camera Display by buler

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?

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).

Also you get more 2008 standard features (some price increases over 2007).

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.

Floor Mats again by nash1234

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?

I tried bothe the Honda All Season Floor "Mats" and the Weathertech Floor "Liners". I cannot honestly say how the Weathertech Floor "Mats" perform as I have not tried them.
 
In my previous post I stated I was very disappointed with the Honda All Season Floor mats, this hold true. Now that I own the Weathertech Floor Liners for a couple of months AND put them through the snow/salt test I can say I am very satisfied and do not regret my purchase.
 
There is a lot of floor ground to cover in a van. After having the short term Honda mat experience and previous mat experiences in other cars I personally find the weathertech floor "Liner" concept worth the extra cost. This is because the have a true 3 dimension fit made specifically for your van and a full surronding lip around the edge of the mat, kind of like the dish tray you may find in your kitchen. They also are easy to clean due not having a gazillion 1 inch deep groves in them which it looks like the mats have.

I have the WeatherTech all season mats in my Highlander and just yesterday I purchased the WeatherTech floor liners for my Odyssey. I looked at both of these at the showroom, while both are good and do their job well I feel that the liners are better suited to the Odyssey as the second and third row are one single piece and almost like a tray that will hold anything the kids manage to bring into the van.
 
I have seen the Honda all-season mats in my friends Odyssey and in my opinion both WeatherTech mats are better than the Honda mats.
 
WeatherTech may not charge tax if you are outside Illinois but I am not sure about this.

Placed an order online for ground shipping on Dec 25 and the set (front & back - dark tint) arrived on Dec 28.
 
The total was $106.95 (no taxes out of IL) for my 2007.
 
The install was quick with instructions and online video.

I would recommend this company.
