Telsa Front Floor Mats Installed

[K-MTG]

Try tucking the edge under the door molding...Then it looks and fits great....and no water/debris can get between the door jamb and the matt.

Look closely at the initial pictures of the thread...

I can't get it to fit under the molding, don't have enough space.

Did you take the original mats out per the instructions?

I did not and still got them to go in but you have to press real hard in the depression near the outside edge for them to slip under the lip of the door sills.

I took them out, will give it another shot but I am afraid I might break something. Are the mats suppose to go there?

I did the same thing, and tucked it under the trim. Had a bit of trouble on the driver's side, but used some plastic pry tools to help. It's mostly a nice fit, but there are a few wavy wrinkles. I'll try using my hot air gun next weekend to straighten them out.

I think you should definitely take out the carpet mats before installation so the velcro on the bottom of the rubber mats can attach properly and can't move accidentally....

Maybe. But my mats are not moving anywhere. I had a heck of a time contorting them into a position as it was.

Has anyone else noticed that on the driver's side, the two velcro circles on the mat are too high to properly connect with their respective location on the firewall? I think there is enough contact (~30%) to be effective, but I was surprised that they didn't line up.
