Default What do you think of this cargo mat?

It doesn't look like this is the genuine honda Insight cargo mat, but it is about half the price... What do you all think of it?

Cargo Trunk Tray Liner Mat 2011 11 Honda Insight LX EX - eBay (item 160509616067 end time Apr-20-11 17:34:14 PDT)

Should I just go ahead and pay for the honda part or will that do the job?

Actually... These guys seem to have really good prices for the genuine article:
Honda Parts and Honda Accessories from Bernardi Parts - Bernardi Honda Parts and Accessories

$69.99 for the mat and 139.93 for the cover so I think I'll get them there. They're not gouging on shipping and handling from what I can see. Has anyone purchased from them before? Will I get everything in one piece soon?

Got them both for $232.09 including shipping. Still way too much for basically molded rubber and a blind, but, the best I could find ... then I think I'll be perfectly happy with my LX as is.

Me thinks you made the good choice. Someone said good things about Bernardi. Besides, that eBay mat looked quite tacky

Ive bought quite a few oem accessories from Bell Honda's ebay site. I call and ask for Ryan and ask for "internet" pricing.

Got my new mat and cargo cover yesterday (from Bernadi's) Went ahead and put them right in. Everything looks great Though I have to say I lie the texture/look of the material on the bottom of the cargo cover more than the top... oh well

Let us know how the mats work for you.
The driver mat has 2 lock downs, but the other 3 don't and they move around. I hate them.

Oh I had the all weather floor mats before from the dealer. The sales guy speculated that someone ordered the car with them then didn't pick up. I like them so far... but of course I'm always in the driver's seat.

The cargo mat fit in nicely.

The OEM cargo mats are just fine. They are fitted and can't move anywhere.
The OEM floor mats are a different story. They don't stay in place. These Honda OEM floor mats suck. They are too light and don't stay put.
I'm considering throwing them away and getting the All Wheather ones.
