Recommendation on rubber floor mats and frunk liner

Looking for a recommendation on rubber floor mats, frunk liner, and back shelf as well. for 2013 991S. I like to use rubber mats year-round because they're good in the winter and i'm too lazy to swap them in the summer.

Note that i'm looking for something that can go in all places (front footwells, rear footwells, frunk, back shelf).

Options i have found so far:
1) WeatherTech: http://www.weathertech.com/porsche/2...icle-mats-avm/ Only problem is that they don't sell the full set for 2013. The link is for 2012. Is there any difference?

2) RubberLite: http://www.usspeed.com/Lloyd-Rubbert...ber-Floor-Mats These are significantly cheaper.

Anybody have experience with WeatherTech or RubberLite? Any other options to consider?

I would stick with Porsche OE rubber mats and liners.

Tahoe - I have the WeatherTechs and love them. I have been a WeatherTech customer for years and all my cars are equipped with them. They are stylist and complement the car perfectly. And they are easy to clean and afford fantastic protection. As for cleaning, just take out and hose down - nothing could be easier. I would suggest full coverage though, and would go with the digi-fit, which is what I have.

I have the weathertech but I haven't found anything for the rear to go with them. Does anyone have a solution for the rear?

I agree WeatherTech is great, however they only seem to have front footwell liners for MY2013. They have rear as well for MY2012. Not sure anything has changed though - does anybody know?

Does somebody have a link to Porsche OE?

Not sure they do. It is not on their website. I do not miss them as no one gets in my rear seats.

I like the Weathertech digit fit mats. I had them in my 997s. excellent fit, well made, and high lips to contain and water/dirt etc . I hate those trim to fit pieces.

Porsche has the OEM rubber mats. While the looked nice it didnt really offer any more protection vs the stock carpet mats.


for the frunk, i just bought a large Rubbermaid container from Target for like $20. Fits perfectly and comes w/ a lid. I keep a qt of oil, gloves, detailer, towels in there.

Another vote for WaetherTech. Have them for all my cars. Used them for years.

I bought the Porsche Cargo Liner. It's expensive for what it is, but it is nice quality and deep. More than happy to take and post pics of both if needed.

the $20one includes a LID. However the Porsche version adds about 5hp!

if you buy a Sharpie and write "P O R S C H E" on the lid, you will obtain the same hp gain as with the Porsche version. This is a very technical fix and it is suggested that you have a professional do it.

As seen above. . . Tupperware is an option, although $20 seems pretty STEEP for that!!
