Yes please do! Considering the cargo mat next.
UPDATE:
Alright, received the weathertechs and used them for one day. They are amazing and I am happy with them for sure, they look nice and do their job. Issue: in my case the clutch does scrape the mat towards the top, it can be seen in the image. Here is the thing though, it seems that the only reason the clutch is scraping is because the mat is still new and has not entirely settled down yet. The mat is a little warped since it's so new and when I push it down with my hand (like 2 or 3 mm only!) and then push the clutch in with my hand while continuing to hold the mat down, it seems to then press all the way and stop without scraping the mat. So technically speaking, if I were to somehow make the driver side weathertech mat stay down properly using some kind of velcro or adhesive in the carpet underneath, then it would essentially not scrape. Since doing some custom velcroing for me is a bit of a headache as I am extremely limited with my time, I will probably just let it scrape until it's broken in having both settled and scraped its path in, I decided the mats are made to be tough and I will let them do their job.
As for the cargo mat, similar issue with the settling into place but in this case it is only a temporary aesthetic nuisance. Since the mat has not settled yet, it does stick out on the front side edge a little bit. Since I am a designer, I notice these things in quite a compulsive manner and perhaps I ought-to get over it but what can I say, when I do something, I like to do it right! In the images below I am showing the mat as-is on its own beside another image of me holding down the mat where you can see it is indeed a perfect fit* (after its broken in... so eventually).* The mat does have a 1-1/2" continuous border that goes around the entire mat in case something spills or makes a mess. It is quite thin and light, not weighing the car down while simultaneously thick enough to provide the appropriate protection. Overall, the mat is awesome, although a bit pricey at $90, I know it will be absolutely worth it in the long run. I suppose I can adhesive-down the edges in order for them to be perfectly flush with the edge plastic trims of the car but I will not do that and instead let the mat slowly settle into place on its own.
BASICALLY the issues are in reality absolutely minor, the weathertechs are a clearly a great investment and will undoubtedly protect our fiSTs from wear and tear in some of the most used locations in the cabin!
SUMMED UP, beside the meticulous nuisances that I cannot help but fixate on, the mats are as good as it gets, the quality and credo of the company is one I can be happy to stand beside and Most importantly, it will protect my fiST from nasty spills, dirt, gum, and whatever other crap might get into the carpet of the car. One important note here is to make sure you remove the stock existing (removable) carpet mats, especially in the front row. You can leave the rear if you choose to without much interference to the fit but the front carpet mats must absolutely be removed for the weathertechs to fit properly. Hope this all helps. if you read all the way up to here you clearly want these things badly enough, just give-in already!! ;D
