Toyota of Dallas is a dealership full of snakes. That's where I went first to get pricing on a Camry LE. After about three hours, all the sales manager could do was tell me how I should really spend an extra $10K to buy a loaded-out XLE (I was going for "cheap commuter vehicle"... if I wanted to spend $32K, I'd spend a few more and buy a G35.) I then had to order him to quit calling me after I'd received three calls from him and two from the salesperson in two days, asking what they could do to "get me in that Camry".
My irritation was driven even higher when I received a brochure from them trying to get me back into the dealership, and telling me what a wonderful machine the Tundra CrewMax was. I ended up writing a 5-page letter to the General Manager, with a carbon copy to Toyota Corporate. Toyota called me wanting to ask questions... the GM never responded.
I'd strongly recommend finding another dealership to work with, even for parts.
Toyota Canada has all-weather mats that is difference than Toyota USA's, softer and bigger in the driver side too. I am using the one which is the recall one (from US). They are heavy duty one, and they are more easy to clean. Just make sure you take the original floor mat out before you use these all-weather mats. I found the two holds on the all-weather mats is too far back (driver side), so it is impossible to attach to the hock on the floor. I left it loose, and it works fine.

If hooking the drivers mat is too tough for you, don't do anything else on the car yourself.
The originals were recalled because dummies didn't fasten them when they replaced their originals or just dropped them on top of their carpet mats.
I bought the original all weather mats from the dealer and had the recall done on them. I wish I would of kept the originals. The difference is the replacement mat is like an inch shorter around the gas pedal. You have to be a real idiot to get the mat to go on top of your gas pedal, which is why they changed them. They are prety cheap but I wish I would of gotten the Weather tech floor liners instead. They are more money but I love the rear seat over the hump feature. So if you can get the older mats go for it, its the same damn clip to only difference is its shorter around the gas pedal so u can get in there.
Yes sir those are the ones I have like I said I like them but the weather tech over the hump is ingenious. I dont have kids yet but wife is 7 months preagnet in a few years I might look into buying just the rear weathertechs.
yea the weathertech looks interesting, i can imagine it definitely be worth it in the back if its being used often, but for me the back seat r usually untouched, if it is its mostly my art portfolios/supplies and junk
so the answer to my question about the recalls are that they r out? or are they still working on them? i mean El Loco said [I bought the original all weather mats from the dealer and had the recall done on them] maybe its just late for me n im just dead tired to actually get this through my head maybe its time for me to sleep since i gotta wake up early tomorrow for class
thanks a lot guys!
but yeah, whats going on? thanks

i believe those r the wat the recalled looks like? but i mean reguardless if they r or not, that pix is pretty much like a "universal" pix u know but iono maybe they'll change it once they manufacture the fixed mats who knows
