Question about 3rd gen matts

Hello, I just ordered some factory model matts for the 1996 camry and I just got them today. I went out to the car and did a compare to find out that the matts are much lighter than the car's carpet. Not only that; the driver matt fits but I would have to unscrew the little notch that pops the trunk/gas and slide the matt under neath it in order to get it to properly fit on the floor. Also the back matts have the top right corner notched out, but my back seat floors are square.

Is this the way the matts are supposed to be? I definitely know I ordered the right color. However, these matts look even lighter than my mom's grey corolla matts. These are supposed to be a darker bluish gray. I'm sorta disappointed.

my back matts are rectangular ... no notches

my front matts come in/out without removing anything except for that little black pin on the driver's side bottom-left ....

That guy must've sent me the wrong year matts then. I just checked the place where I bought it and I didn't make any mistakes in buying it.

Argh, I hate it when places mess up your stuff and make you have to ship stuff back and wait longer.

I was just wondering if the driver's matt had a hole in it for the little plastic clip that secures it to the hole in the floor?

If you did not get these at the dealer, just go get them at the dealer. They are like $70 for the Gen 3 ones.

That's just the thing; I did order them from a dealer.

Looks like they got my order wrong.

If you have your old AND new mats, get one of each, and turn them over. There will be the part # imprinted into the rubber. See if they are the same or different. If you can, post up both part #'s here.
