What are you guys using for floor mats in these trucks? I have not been able to find any that will fit worth a darn. Are you making your own? if so, out of what? I just installed new black carpet and would like to protect it.

Thank You

Corey

JIm Carter sells one that is a spot on dead ringer for these trucks. Other venders may carry them now as well.
The top edge has about a one inch of clear border there.

Carl, Corey is looking for a product like a Weather Tech mat, for example, to put over his finished carpeted floor. All I saw on Jim Carter's site was the factory style floor mat.

I suppose you could lay the factory floor mat over the carpeting but that seems like it would defeat the purpose of having carpet in the first place.

You could go to one of the big box stores, buy a vinyl carpet runner (the kind they have on the big rolls, in black ribbed or clear) and cut it to fit. I had used black ribbed for a few years before I bought the original style replacement mat and it is much cheaper.

I cut my own using a universal rubber mat from Canadian tire the rubber looks durable at almost 1/8 thick .I then found some weathertec mats a a discount store from a Toyota highlander I think .the rubber was about 30 Canadian and the mats were 25 .

Looks like they were made for your truck!
