I did a minor mod to the second row floor mats.
I'm trying to minimize the chances of damage from food, drink, shoe heels, etc. to the covers for the motors that move the seat rails.
The covers are hard plastic and may withstand contact from shoe heels.
They did fine with the coffee spill that occurred a couple of months ago, but I like to be proactive when possible.
I had tried tarp material, clear plastic, and thin rubber.
The tarp and plastic looked bad.
The rubber created too much friction on the motor covers, such that I was concerned about stress on the motors.
I found some spare pieces of carpet used on a utility room floor.
I cut pieces to cover the openings in the floor mat, but had to allow room/flex for the seat rails to freely move forward to the closest position, relative to the front seats.
I didn't need to seal the pieces to the bottom of the floor mat because the weight of passengers should be sufficient in addition to design of the mat that angle or recess upward on the bottom edges. I also wanted to be able to remove them if necessary, so I used velcro and treated them with Scotchgard before installation.
First two pics are before installation.
The last two are of interior, but the lighting isn't good, even with the reading lights on and a flashlight.
I'll take some more tomorrow outside in sunlight.
