I need a good price for the OEM mats though. Anyone?

want to avoid the carpet wet as much as possible.
I got mine from Grubbs Infiniti dealer in Texas. It was cheaper for me because my parents live close to there (winter) and then brought them back to NS me.

It's not a good idea to put mats over top of the OE ones and not recommended in the manual. You risk the mats slipping around and catching on the gas pedal. I know. If the mats you have don't catch all the water just put a folded towel and at the end for the overflow. Periodically wash/rinse it and you're good.

I got the factory rubbers for $114 from Hyatt. Perfect fit and price is OK with me.

Oh and this is with the OEM carpet mats removed.
Hmmmm....i will keep that in mind.

OEM Winter mats? are these different from the All season OEM mats?

Some good advice. Thanks for the heads up Deane.

*********************

Well looks like i will order online and get 15% off the price. Seems like $114 to $120 is the going rate. This way i can save on the taxes with the internet discount. I will get the all season OEM mats and then, see how the ones i bought from CT last weekend (winter mats) will fit. I will take note of the heads up advice too.

Thanks all...

Yes they are

I got a response from Oakville Infiniti in regards to the rubber mats and they quoted me $114 and 15% off.

I sent this link to them and they are gonna confirm if these are the exact mats.

Then i will order through them.

Thanks for all the help guys.

No worries.

FYI, the factory carpet in the G is backed with a rubber/urethane type material making it difficult for water to penetrate into the underlay/insulation.

Thanks, that is comforting to know but I still want added protection. Hopefully Oakville will call me tomorrow with the final order details.

The Hyatt Group is the owner of the Calgary Infiniti dealership, they own a number of dealerships in Calgary.

I ordered an 07 G35X sedan (graphite interior) picking it up shortly. The only options I ordered were Prem/Tech/Nav. I didnt even think to ask about floor mats.

1) what type of floor mats do I get? - I assume there decent, dark with an infinti logo - correct?

2) re winter, I had planned to take them out and put in some CT mats, here (about $80 for 4) or here for $30, but I assume they will not 'fit' nicely.

3) I guess the only option is the dealer - at $115 (for 4???) . I saw the oakville link (15% internet purchase) but that was for the coupe...they dont show anything for the sedan.

Follow-up

The factory winter mats suck. Water from melted snow pools exactly where your pant cuffs touch the floor, which wets the back of each leg.

I think a pair of bicycle clips may be in order...

Wow.. Sound like the $30 CT swap-out option is the way to go for the winter months.

That will drive me nuts?! Too bad, I was just about to go buy a set because I think they will look a lot better that the cheap ones I have now.

So are you saying that these would fit in the sedan?
