Starting them young, I see Cute pic. Train them on how to use the cup holder in the rear seat middle. That thing will hold a cup for sure.

That MB floormat IS a WeatherTech product (probably just made for MB by WeatherTech). Even the MB tag on the mat is in the same place and same size as the WeatherTech mat.

I'm taking delivery of my GL this week and was just online to get my liners ordered so I'll have them on day one. I doubt the MB liner covers any better or worse, because its the same product (can't verify that 100%, but I'd bet $$ on it).

Anyway, the MB liners would be cool if I can get them reasonable enough (they have the MB logo and everything)... if not, I'll get them from WeatherTech.
+1. Have had WeatherTech liners/ mats and several cars and they've been great. I have a Macadamia interior but went black on the mats and this contrasts nicely. The one oversight by MB is that they should have placed rubber on the dead pedal area. None of the mats I've seen adequately cover this. Anyone have other solutions?

Your car should be very clean. Well, below the door handles anyway.

here are pics of my black liners in an ash interior

I'm happy with the MB/Weathertech rubber floor liners in black with my ash interior. Like others mentioned, I wished the tops of the front maps extended further. I have a white rag over the rear exposed hump. I'm going to look out for black rubber mats I can cut up to make the proper extentions.

Thanks to all the great insight and comments presented in this thread I've just ordered a full set of the Black Weathertech Liners for the front, 2nd row and the cargo area of my GL450. Bit pricier here in Canada after adding duties, GST and shipping ($410), but since I keep my vehicles long term, I feel its well worth it.
