    Still no response from Taptes about my mats and its been a couple months now with no tracking info so I opened a Paypal claim. Hopefully they will find in my favour and then I can order these instead.

    Tracking says mine made it to the UK last week - might be stuck in customs or just delayed with all our recent snow.

    Mine arrived from Ali Express, but seem a little different. The front ones are fine, but the cut of the rear seat mat could be better. In particular, there is a gap in the corner (easy to stick a finger in and lift the mat, or anything else to collect in there):

    Also the flat piece in the middle buts up against the centre console, and could have been a little shorter? And the cut-outs for the front seat runners were not perfectly aligned. Still, better than nothing and will be harder wearing than more carpet.

    Here's another view - with a baby seat leg.

    The corner gap (red oval again doesn't look so bad here), but you can see the a generous margin round the outer chair runners (green) and the outside of the inner runners (blue). However, it is quite tight on the inside of the inner runners (where the transmission tunnel would be on an ICE car). And this is as far forward as the mat will go, the central piece is right up against the base of the central console.

    Mine finally arrived. Taptes finally gave up the correct tracking info one day before PayPal would have refunded me and I was able to chase up the delivery firm.

    Can't put them in car until Tuesday to see how they fit but either way I won't use Taptes again, based on the fact they ignored my requests for tracking info.

    May have missed it in the advert but are they RHD?

    I've had 5 separate orders from Luckeasy, shipping has always been really fast, longest wait was 16 days with some items arriving within a week.

    Hi Benjamin
    Just wanted to find out how is your car mats from Aliexpress. I did see your post bit unsure about couple of other brands so was wondering whether I can order this from aliexpress. Looks like it is similar to taptes but definitely less expensive and not 3 months waiting time. Let me know how this is holding up with dust and how easy to clean these mats. I often hear all weather mats are bit of a pain to clean unless you have a pressure washer?
    Looking forward to hear from you

    I'm curious if @BenjaminOgden1's TAPTES-like mats from AliExpress are the same as the ones they sent me (with regard to the fit of the rear mat in particular, see our photos earlier in the thread).

    Hi
    Just wanted to check how is your mat holding up - now after a year. I am bit unsure about ordering from Taptes as it takes so long. And the Aliexpress one that is similar to Taptes looks like does not fit that well from DenkiJidousha's feedback. So wondering Yours from luckeasy looks good, does it age well? Let me know

    I want to get some all weather mats for my M3. Didn't realise it was so hard to get some that fit ok.

    I'm afraid I haven't received mine yet! They're expect to be here in just over a week or so. I'll post pictures once I get them :)

    The choice of mats are getting tricky; anyone knows how the Tesla carpet mats look and feel?. I am wondering whether that is a better option than the ones from China and US as there is no guarantee when they will come nor their quality and fit.

    I bought mats directly from Weathertech Europe (they are based in Italy) over a year ago, they only had rear seat mats and trunk / frunk mats. So I bought those and checked the box to be advised when the front mats would be available for RHD UK cars. Nothing since, I’ve emailed them a few times....”not yet available, will be in touch when they are” ....was the response each time. Getting nowhere fast.
