Cargo mat/liner (again)
#26
If I had to do it again I'd probably get the OEM cargo mat. People mention the weathertech has cheapened out and it's confirmed, I had an old one from 2008 that was absolutely solid but this new one is floppier and feels cheaper than back in 2008. It'll still work fine but it's not the greatest.

2024 GLS 580, 2022 Sprinter-based Winnebago View 24D
For floor mats, I'm going to go with the Tuxmats. It's nice that they have a specific set (https://www.tuxmat.com/products/8770...2828&year=2024) for the GLS 580 with the rear Executive bench seats.
Does anyone have experience with the "Trunk Tub" (https://www.mbpartscenter.com/oem-pa...167814030028)?
The OEM cargo mat mentioned and pictured above seems to be available here (https://mbparts.mbusa.com/oem-parts/...mat-1676846600).
You can order the Concertina to go with it, also mentioned above, here (https://mbparts.mbusa.com/oem-parts/...r-253693200064).
Unfortunately, the 3d MAXpider mats (https://3dmatsusa.com/collections/cu...gu-cargo-liner) don't list "GLS-CLASS" in the dropdown on their page. I've also asked them whether their mats cover the cargo area with the 3rd row down. I'd much prefer to have a single mat that can fold when the 3rd row is up but protect things when it is down.
I don't like the Weather Tech or Smartliner approach of having two different mats to install depending on the position of the 3rd row.

Good afternoon, the reason that your order was canceled is that this part does not apply to this vehicle. The reversible mat is only available for the GLE not the GLS because the 3rd row does not allow it to sit properly even if you have the seats folded down.

Cargo liner has never been developed, and is on the future (R&D) development list.
Please try back in the next 4-6 months.

I bought this from Amazon back in 2020 for my 2020 GLS and still using it in my 2024 GLS. Seven-seater with 3rd row usually down, and when I need to carry extra passengers and raise the 3rd row, I can easily roll the mat behind the 3rd row. It has worked pretty well for what it's supposed to do over the past 4 years for just $90.

I tried to order this, and the dealer (Mercedes-Benz of South Orlando) responded to me with this:
But on the same site, it said that "This part fits your 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLS 580". I don't see why it wouldn't fit the 2024, or why they would say that it is for the GLE only.

Sorry that site seems to be wrong It does not fit, the GLE only has two rows of seats so it has a bigger space in the trunk for the mat to sit in as where the GLS has the third row seat which takes up the trunk space where the mat would go. Even if you fold the seats down it would not have a perfect fit like it was designed to be for the GLE.
Correct, as it is a luxury vehicles they are not designed to be accessorized. Depending on the year and model of the vehicle there are only a few items that apply to each. Sorry if this brings any inconvenience.

This seems almost incomprehensibly ignorant. I guess that my only choices are to go with third-party accessories or buy Mercedes OEM accessories from third-parties, and hope they aren't fakes. I expected far better accessory support from Mercedes-Benz on a new top-of-the-line SUV. Very frustrating.

It should fit all model years of X167 (at least the 7 seaters, although I cannot see why it can't be used in 6 seaters). As said, I got it for my 2020 GLS and had no problem using it in my 2024 GLS. Most likely the seller just didn't bother with updating the compatibility info since listing it in 2020. It will fit your car (and comes with free delivery and return just in case).

It's somewhat rigid but still flexible enough that with the 3rd row up, I can just roll it in the space behind the seats.

Just wanted to report that I did end up finally receiving the mat from Amazon. It seems to be made fairly decently, has the lip preventing stuff like umbrellas from rolling into the crevice behind the 2nd row, and is tacky enough that most objects don't have any chance of rolling!
So far so good!
