Does anyone have this problem with their trunk mat?
The trunk mat fitment doesn't seem to fit right and causing the front edge to slide toward the back which makes the front edge drop/slide down to the opening. (hope that makes sense)
PS...My car is at the shop getting pretty, so I can't take a pic. It's been bothering me, just wondering if it's normal.

There are 2 plastic clips that act as hinges that go in the front of the plastic part the mat is bonded to. I am missing one of them also but can't figure out where the part number is in the EPC. Does anyone have the part number?

I have the same problem and my buddy got the dealer to fax over a screen shot from the parts CD. It's the circled part. It says "Picture number: B69045000168.081113" It sounds like that's not the part number put the number of the entire image.
Hope this attachment helps

Yeah me too!! My trunk mat slides around like crazy! I knew that there was something missing! So two clips is all it is, will someone who's got the clips working confirm!?

Is something suppose to go under that mat, or is it just the mat and the spare underneath? Mine drops on the opening as wheel, does not appear to fit right at all.

Those two clips hold the mat in place so it doesn't slide forward like it is doing now. Apparently it's real easy to lose. Just a thought but I would look in the spare tire well real good. Could have just fell in there

Yes the clips work and for reference to compare yours to, here are pics of mine with and with out the clip and the one with the key fob in it, is where the clips connect into. They are not permanent to the mat, it's just an opening they slide into so it's possible they came off when someone removed the mat before. I put heavy stuff in my trunk a lot of the times and it doesn't move. Nor does it sink down but then again I have the full size spare, not the tiny flat looking spare like some have. You can see in the key picture the tire if you are unsure as to what I mean. So maybe that helps my mat but it's still pretty sturdy when I take it out.
