What kind of winter floor mats do you use?

Getting a new 2014 E350 in a few weeks.

I usually get the OEM rubber mats because they fit well, but recently saw a VW with Weathertech. They fit just as well and ran up the sides a few inches.

Do you get black mats or try to match the carpet color?

I don't like seeing the "WeatherTech" logo so I use OEM. I prefer to go with the color of the carpet. As always, personal preference.

Weathertech knock offs -- they threw them in on completion of the sale... I use them now and plan on using them all year round (the OEM floormats will stay in the trunk until I'm ready to trade in this car)

i like them! .. i have black interior and therefore....they matched

Use OEM winter mats year round. I them and the honeycomb design which has been around forever, but wish I got black sometimes instead of khaki. Khaki shoes scuffs and dirt alot.

have the weathertech liners in the GL, like them a lot also.

I use the normal floor mats. I keep my W212 in the garage so it does not get snow inside really. Depending on your situation and the need for winter mats I would just go with OEM Winter set.

I use the OEM rubber mats. I thought about getting the Weathertech for the back so that the kids don't mess up the floors so much in the winter but Weathertech does not offer it as a single piece for the back so I did not bother.

I feel the same, if weathertech had a 1 peice for the rear of the W212 I'd get it. I like it for the GL...

OEM mats since they're made for the vehicle!

When I took delivery my CA gave me a set as a gift.
