Weathertech cargo liner

For those of you with the Mac interior who have gone on to buy the Weathertech cargo liner, how close does the liner's tan color come to the Mac color? Also, is this the liner that comes in two pieces that can be used when the third row seats are down?

Don't know about the mac color as I got black weathertech/mb mat to go with my grey interior, but I do know how the two piece cargo mat works. You get two pieces that overlap at the seam right where the third row seats fold up. If you want to use the third row, than you just remove the forward piece.

I used the third row seats for the first time tonight while loading a cart load of groceries. I was surprised with how much cargo there is still left in the rear with the third row up. All the big boxy items fit well at the bottom and all the bags sat on top. One thing I noticed though is that the back of the seats are totally exposed while people get in and out through the back hatch or second row. Wish it was a solid plastic backing instead of cloth.

I have a Mac interior but opted for black weathertech liners. They look great and will be easier to keep clean. I believe the brown color will be a bit darker than the interior (not an exact match). I agree with 85mm entirely, I keep the 3rd row mat rolled and stored in the back just for those occasions when you have a bulky item.

I order the tan version of the weathertech liner this week. I'll let you know what they look like once I get them.

The color isn't exactly the same, it's a little darker. I would compare it to the color of the darker leather on the dashboard. The cargo liner does have two sections; one for when the seats are up, the other for when they are down.
