Origin7 Posted March 27 Posted March 27 I’m looking for an insulation layer for my floor pans and am thinking about picking up the Caterham rubber mats. Curious how people like them. Do they stay put, and how do they hold up to wear and tear? Thanks!
IamScotticus Posted March 27 Posted March 27 Consider rubber stable/stall mat. not too hard to cut and will dampen most anything. Very hefty but they come in various thicknesses. I've seen similar material sold at Home Depot https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/boomerang-rubber-inc-4-x-6-black-rubber-utility-mat-2557368

That's much closer to what I'd like to spend too. Thanks!
CBuff Posted March 27 Posted March 27 I like my floor mats supplied by caterham. They snap down in 5 locations (2 front, 3 rear). They stay put. Since you have to take them out every time you wash the car to vacuum up the water and grit that inevitably gets underneath them. Just be careful removing them. i have one popper that has pulled thru the mat. Havent had a chance to try and repair that yet. The floor pan under the seat gets torn up quickly with rocks rubbing from the seat squab (leather seats). I ended up painting that section in truck bedliner (herculiner) just recently. So far so good. But I also get a lot of guff from other owners for being a bit a polishing queen. 1
Origin7 Posted March 28 Author Posted March 28 Thanks @CBuff. Great feedback. I like the idea of the bedliner under the seats. Seems like the perfect solution. I just carpeted under my seats (because that's what was originally there). That probably makes me even more of a polishing queen.
