#842 of 902 Re: Floor Mats again [nash1234] by angelchicago Dec 25, 2007 (3:32 am)
Replying to: nash1234 (Dec 24, 2007 10:19 pm) 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 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. http://www.weathertech.com/store/mvproduct.aspx?ItemGroupId=4&VehId=281&Year=200- 7   I would recommend this company.
#845 of 902 Mirror + backplate by hatman20 Dec 29, 2007 (4:14 pm)
Hi Searched this forum + the DIY forum, but didn't find what I needed... Automatic mirror and backplate on Odyssey/2000 (Year) LH/driver's side mysteriously disappeared. I can buy a mirror for $38, but with no backplate, which I am told, is necessary to attach mirror. Honda dealership told me that I must purchase and replace the entire mirror unit (for a lot of $), that they do not sell just mirror and backplate.   Does anyone know where I can buy a mirror with backplate attached, or just a backplate, new or used? Thanks for any thoughts! Replies to this message: user777 (Dec 30, 2007 10:07 am) hatman20 (Dec 30, 2007 4:42 pm)

Replying to: angelchicago (Dec 25, 2007 3:32 am) I have the Honda All Season Floor Mats and am very disappointed in them. Water from melted snow runs everywhere. I am thinking about getting a set of Weathertech floor Liners also. Can you comment on how the water gets channeled over the door sills in the front row. Does it make a big mess on the door sill and does water run under the plastic piece on top of the door sill? Quote from Weathertech: "Once fluids become trapped in the reservoir, away from shoes and clothing, they are easily removed from the WeatherTech® FloorLiner™ over the door sill...no muss-no fuss!" Thanks in advance. Replies to this message: angelchicago (Jan 10, 2008 4:53 am) agiletrixie (Feb 04, 2009 10:17 pm)

#849 of 902 WeatherTech floor mats vs liners by husker39 Jan 09, 2008 (8:15 pm)
I just purchased a 07 Odyssey EXL with gray leather and really need to purchase winter floor mats. Read some forum comments so I have been looking at the WeatherTech products and wanted to know which color matches best with the gray interior (Black or gray???) On the WeatherTech website it looks like the gray floormats are a light gray. It sounds like most of you like the liners over the mats. I am still trying to decide which style I should purchase mats vs. heavy duty floor liners. I would like some additional feedback if possible.

Replying to: poocat (Dec 30, 2007 9:15 am) Update on performance of Weathertech Floor LINERS: I went to FL the last 3 weeks. Spend a lot of time in the car as we drover theire and several visits to the sandy beach. So update on the sand test gets an "A". Each time I went to the beach I was able to pull the mats out and just dump out any collected sand then light dust off with 2 paper towels. This allowed me to eliminate any sand, and I noticed when I pulled the liners the sand stayed collected in the liners, as opposed to blowing off into the carpet.   I recreated the Chicago snow test since I did not monitor what actually took place when we had snow. I just know we did not get snow on the carpet so I assume the mats collected the water and evaporated. To recreate the test I took 3 cups of water and dumped it onto the drivers side mat only. All the water stayed in the liner, then to my surprise the water did trickle out of the car in almost a magical way. The liners do in fact have a channel that directs the water out of the liner and over the plastic edge at door entry point. It appeared magical because it almost looked like the water was climbing uphill. I did see the clean water I put channel over the plastic honda edge, but I will say it used maybe a 1 inch width to channel water out and it did not back into the carpet. I decided to close the door after 1 cup flowed out and noticed it still channeled out of the car. I did notice approx 1 cup stayed in, which I suspect is a volumen that is managiable where gravity will take over. I did not want my wife to freak on this so I pulled the mat out to dump out the 1 cup and kind of clean it up. I noticed no water under the mat so the test kept all water in the tray as designed.   In short very very satisfied with the LINER concept.
