Question about Lloyds floor mats

Hi,

I want to replace my worn out floor mats by the Lloyds ones sold here on Pelican.

I am on the short side, and I pull the driver seat forward almost all the way when I'm driving (I would say 80% forward). With my current mats, the front seat rails always hit the mat and end up pushing it forward into the pedals. I am not using a mat anymore on the driver side.

Those of you with the Llloyds mats, is it thin enough so that you can pull the driver seat 100% forward without being annoyed by the mat ?

Thanks

Not mine. Mine curl up as well and push forward over the gas pedal and up behind the clutch. I have to pull them back every time I get in the car.

The Lloyds mats I got for the 968 have straps that hook into the seat rails and prevent the mats from moving up. I don't recall ever having any issues with the mats interfering with sliding the seat up all the way. I've since swapped in some Corbeu track seats which have thinner rails and can still slide them up all the way without problems.

I installed interior trim screws on each rear corner of the mat . Screws run into seat support and hold mat down great. I tend to push the mats under the gas and brake also but the screws help a lot.

I too have Lloyd's matts with straps and I don't have problems with the seats hitting them.

I have rennline track mats. Theyre basically a sheet of aluminum custom fitted to the floor. Although I don't track my car I bought them because I didn't like how my stock mats slid around (Didn't come with straps). Slightly more expensive but maybe something to consider?

The edges of mine can hang on the seat rails, but once they are tucked under the front edges of the seat rails, they slide over the mats no problem

I think Toyota has floor mats on sale right now. Maybe cut them to fit?
