    SQ5 all weather mats

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Any other SQ5 owners try these mats from weathertech? I haven't found a lot of options for the 2014's yet so I'm open to suggestions for alternatives. I like the OEM ones, but they don't seem to have ones with the SQ5 logo.

    Mark P on Audiworld has those and posted about them in his new 2014.

    I went with the OEM...I don't love that they say Q5 instead of the nice S-sport type ones I have in my RS 4. I figure if they come out with S Q5 specific ones, I'll still likely be able to sell the Q5 ones and "upgrade". Weathertech certainly cover more area, but I don't like the slipperyness of them nor do I love the look.

    weathertech are way overpriced IMO. Yeah I know, made in USA... quality... blah, blah, blah. After all it's just 4 pieces of rubber for $200.

    Thanks, I found the thread. Seems about what I'd expect.

    They're about the same price as the husky liners...if you know of other options I'm open to hearing them

    I love the weathertech mats. I've had a set in my last 4 cars. They have great customer service too, they replaced a front set for me to the newer snap-in style when they came out with them.

    I put the WeatherTech mats in my wife's 2014. I've always held off getting them over the years due to the price, but now that we've got a set, I'll be running them again on future vehicles.

    I think the weathertech quality is quite decent, just overpriced for what it is. There's no reason why they should cost almost $200, but I guess they must pay for those five page magazine spreads somehow.

    Anyways, I pulled the trigger on the weathertechs, I'll post pics once they get put in if anyone is interested.

    I've got them in my S4, and they do protect better than the S-style factory rubber mats. Particularly around the edges and the dead-pedal. If you live in an area with salted winter roads, then it's a good product to keep your carpets from growing salt crystals over the winter.

    Those are exactly what I am looking for. I don't see the RS5 on their page...did you special order these? Any issues shipping to the US? Love the look and am very interested in these.

    ACE22- Just send them an email with exactly with what you want and they will email you back with a price and you can paypal them.... Just be prepared for a slow response to email.. I think these gents are a bit older and don’t check email to soon or quickly so be prepared to wait a week or two for a response with a few follow ups. I’ve shipped two sets of Mats from them and no problems and great quality. Def worth the wait!

    These look real good. I got the Weathertech's for the winter, but I'll definitely pick up a set of these with the SQ5 logo come springtime. Thanks for the heads up!!

    Look great! I know what I'm asking for this Xmas!
    I can't decide on metal heel plates or not...
    Is that black with black binding, or grey binding?
    I also presume you custom ordered to get the logo on the rear mats?
    Sorry for all the questions!
    Thanks!

    Thank you and I ordered the mats in Anthracite which is the closest color they have to Audis carpeting and the binding came with it which looks the same as the carpeting.

    You can order it with or without the heel pad and I didn't specify the stitching color this time and they did it in white which ties into the car so I like it. Last time I had done black. They can also do any logo you'd prefer. Hope this helps!

    Not just 4 pieces of rubber!
    I had them in my VW GTI and they are awesome for those of us that are active and or live in a sandy or muddy area.
    They are I think lazer cut specific for each make and model vehicle.
    They are more of a cup than a mat.
    I love the fact that they keep the water, mud, dirt, sand, wrappers/trash in and on the dish/mat vs going over/off the side of a standard mat and then all over the vehicle.
    I think the Husky brand and WeahterTech may be very similiar. Both USA made! Last I looked anyway.
    For those that get dirty all the time I can not recommend them strong enough!
    Easy to clean also.
