FYI...

I've been waiting for Weathertech to offer their Floor Liners for a while. I have previously owned Weathertech products and they rock!

It appears they have just released them for the W212 but only have the front row mats available for now.

They do, however, have BOTH rows in their regular all-season mats.

The MB weather mats for this car are pretty nice too. Did you check them out as well?

I ordered a front set of Digital Fit from Weather Tech yesterday.

$99.95 plus $18 shipping for 7-10 day delivery. (rears not available yet, but when they are they will ship for free since they are not available now.) You have to do this by phone when the rears are available, as I was told when calling Weather Tech today.

BTW, Also was told they actually manufacturer these Digital Fit trays as they are ordered, that is why the 7-10 day shipping.

I asked what happens if one chooses expedited shipping and the rep said that for the extra shipping charge they will also expedite manufacturing them. (Strange but true)

-------------

Weather Tech All-Weather rubber floor mats. (NO MB logo)(NON- Digital) are the same as the MB mats offered at the MB dealership.
They are $99.95 PLUS shipping of approx. $18.

The MB dealer charges about $89.(From the dealer MB Logo.) No shipping of course and you can order them if not in stock and they will be in within 2 business days.

I have a set of these and really don't like that they leave too much carpeting exposed. Good for rainy climates, but for snow and ice they are better than ruining your carpeted mats but not a great solution.

wheels777...

Thanks for your post. What do you recommend for SNOW?

Digital Fit from Weather Tech .

I'm in Western NY in the Finger Lakes Region. I have the rubber mats from MB dealer and I can see already that there will be spill over at times on to the carpet.

I wasted the money, but Weather Tech did not have the Digital Fit available last month.

DHI

Thanks again. Ordered the FloorLiners Digitalfit online.

The weathertech digital fit design are the very best, because when you get into your car, with snow on your boots, the water is collected on the mat and with the MB mats the water, especially with your left foot, has a tendency to run under the floor mats. No comparison.

They doesn't look very good though, nothing I would bring into my Mercedes...

Wish I looked here several days ago. Bought them at my dealer for $99 plus tax. Live and learn...

Digital Fit from Weather Tech Floor Liners.

Did anyone order these AND receive them yet? Ordered on 12/27/09. Still waiting.

blazeone

Me too, ordered on 12-29-09.

wheels777

Called Weather Tech today. They are sending them out tomorrow.

I spoke to Pat and she said to post her number and have anyone else who ordered call, and she would help them.

wow... I thought I was the only one in limbo here.

Ordered 12/28/09... nothing yet.

Sent out email following up yesterday... still no news. Thanks for the tel number "wheels777" !

juliamike

Ordered mine 1-6-10. "Scheduled delivery 1-21-10" via fedex.

wheels777

When you install the Digital Liners make sure that the attachment that goes on the floor pegs fits properly and secures the Digital Mats to the floor.

The first set I received did not attach properly due to the incorrect grommets and now a replacement is being sent out.

I should have informed the forum when I posted before.

wheels777,

Thanks for the Weather Tech contact info. I just spoke with Pat, and she is working on having my Digital Liners (ordered 1/5/10) shipped tomorrow, with the correct grommets.

To be continued ....

blazeone

They are shipping mine FedEX priority overnight and refunded me my $18.00 shipping fee.

I did not even ask for this as I realize the 212 is a new model and it takes time to get the product to market.

I think Weathertech has great customer support.

wheels777

Pat at Weather Tech did the same thing for me!

Pat and Jennifer in customer service were the best and "saved the day" IMO, because before they interceded my order was in limbo and nothing was going right.

My original email notification said "we are working to pick, pack and ship your order and you will receive in 7-10 days."

They have since UPDATED the website/email order confirmations to say: Your order has been received. We are working to manufacture (in some cases), pick, pack and ship your order.

*FloorLiner & Cargo Liner Delivery Note:
You have purchased a custom-made product which takes time to manufacture. Once your FloorLiners or Cargo Liners are molded, they are then hand trimmed, hand packed and then shipped via FedEx ground (unless you chose express shipping). Please allow 3 to 7 business days for manufacturing and up to 5 business days for FedEx ground shipping (unless you chose express shipping) to deliver your package to your door from our Kansas manufacturing facility.

DHI

I called the 1-800 number today to speak to Pat... it appears that I was redirected to Weathertech Canada, only to be told that they have not received shipment yet and that they expect to ship before MARCH!

I was so dumbfounded on the phone, all I said was "Ugh, ok then."

I will try again tomorrow morning to get a more sensible date. How can I accept to Paypal money in December for Winter mats and get them in March?

blazeone

Got mine today, look and fit great.

For those who don't like the WeatherTech LOGO on the Digital Fit Mats it peels off easily and leaves NO residue.

Since they are molded to the exact dimensions of the specific car they fit, they literally become indistinguishable from the carpeted floor. They have a smooth texture.

The All Weather rubber mats (not Digital Fit ) IMO, actually detract more from interior appearance due the honeycomb molded design. They also can not be cleaned as easily since you have to remove them to clean and wash out all the crevices.

The Digital Fit Liners can just be wiped off while in the car.


P.S. I have both

After a couple of calls to Pat and Paula at WeatherTech customer service, the mats I ordered 1/5/10 arrived 1/22/10. Although I had specifically asked them to be sure that my order was shipped with the correct grommets, it arrived with grommets that were too small to fit on the floor pegs.

So it looks like I need to make another call on Monday to WeatherTech. Nice mats, but way too much work required to get them and make them work. In my opinion, this experience (and those of others on reported this forum) is a very poor advertisment for their products.

wheels777

I sympathize with you.

This was the same BS I went through.

DHI

On my side, I ended up calling back the 1-800 number posted above and was again redirected to the Weathertech CANADA call center and got "no joy" on quicker delivery on floorliners... we're now talking about mid-Feb after ordering end of December.

Impossible to get any news on the 2nd row mats from the representative either.

Other than the grommet issue raised here, my previous experience with Weathertech product still proves that the wait will be worth it.

Patience...
