| Second Row rubber mats - don't fasten together too well ? |
|
Hi all, finally took delivery of my new D4 XS yesterday - absolutely delighted with it so far in the first 20 hours!!
Just a minor niggle - I'm struggling with the second row rubber mats, which come in two pieces which fasten together via a tongue & groove type joint (- anybody who has them will know what I mean!). I'm finding that they don't really fasten together too well, without very careful sliding together, and then they fairly easily come apart again as I try to fit them in the vehicle. With my kids getting in and out of the back I can't see how they are possibly going to stay together - unless maybe I glue them.
Anybody had same problem? 5 x D4 from 2010-2017. Defender 90XS. Porsche 992C2S

Same issue on D3 version, not really a problem as long as the floor fasteners are used. Some sticky velcro pads on the back of the mat stops it moving too much. 2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto

Yep have the same problem with my 2nd row mats,but once they are held in place with the grub type screws the smaller section sits over the large section and tbh seem to stay in place,I've tried on numerous occasions trying to slide them together for it only to fall apart again 
Enjoy your D4  what colour did you get ? Www.devonchilliman.co.uk

It has off road guidance as well as on road
The 4x4 info is part of the premium package
Not supposed to be a standard part of the spec according to the brochure

Going back to the start of the topic - the amount of time I've spent over the years putting those mats back in place after kids have been in in the back - there should be more of an 'underlap' on the larger piece.
