How is the fit of the Husky liners? How about durability. I've considered buying them, but wasn't sure if they would be sub par compared to the WeatherTech ones. Do the WeatherTech liners cover the dead pedal completely? Also, can you just get the front Husky mats? I don't see an option on their site to just buy the fronts.

Do the Husky mats snap in on the driver AND passenger side?

I've never owned weather tech liners but I can say the Husky liners are awesome. I've had them for only a couple of months but they seem durable. They fit like a glove and the whole dead pedal is covered. I got the whole set. No one will ever sit in my back seats but they're protected.

They don't snap it but they don't move either. One if my better purchases.

I have a set of pedals with a dead pedal that I'd like to install, so would you recommend the Weathertechs if I don't need the flap? Or does Husky have one without I wonder.

The mats I have are for our other vehicles. I don't have those mats for the stang. I just meant in terms of quality and feel, I much prefer the husky. They're very durable and thicker than the weathertech.

The tub style don't. Only about half of the "no dead pedal here" carpet. Your heel is on the liner, the ball of your foot is on the dead pedal. Works and feels great. See #8 pic.
I can't speak for the Husky. I've had WT tubs in 3 vehicles and haven't worn through them yet. I live in the mountains off a gravel/dirt road with serious winters so tub style are a requirement.

I've got the CDC Dead Pedal in my car ... expensive, but it matches.

I bought the Lloyd carpeted mats 1st, then the Husky Liners ... both fit very well with the CDC.

The rear seat Husky's and the trunk stay in year round ... the carpeted Lloyd's go up front in Summer and run the Husky's in the winter.

The Lloyd's are the best carpeted mats I found (most floor coverage) and I feel the Husky's blow away the WeatherTechs. Plus, WT does not have a custom molded one for the S197 Trunk which I now feel is a MUST HAVE !!

Oh wow, so the Huksy liners are a gloss type finish? Looks like it collects and shows a bunch of scratches!! Might have to rethink those...

I couldn't agree more. I've had both.

I think it depends on the type/kind/model you have. The one on my wife's car is a gray finish and does not show scratches at all. It's great.

Hi,

New here, and I picked this up last week. I didnt see anyone mention this and was wondering what people thought of it.

http://www.americanmuscle.com/deadpedal-0509-gt.html

I think it could be a little more solid, and once you have installed it there is no way to easily remove it or adjust it. One and done...

No, the Husky's are more of a matte finish. I think camera flash may make them look shinier than they really are.

Not yet. I think I'm between the CDC and full pedal set that Gary posted (probably the all black ones).

You have him beat with the "locking gas cap." Have you figured out a way to secure your tail pipes would hate to have someone stick a potato in it. Never doubt "Eddie Murphy's Law"......he stuck a banana in my tail pipe.

You're late. Patrick and I have been giving each other crap about this for a while now

As for the tail pipe, good idea. Do you want to start the thread, or should I?

By the way love the looks of your ride !
