Default Floor mats?

06' vert.

Is it just me? I bought mats from GM a year ago and the drivers side spacing for the clips (distance between them) was off. I brought them back and then ordered form MA. Seem to be the same so I kept them. Well eventually the feed thru popped out.

Has any one else encountered this?

Thanks,
Steve

Default 05 Vett floor mats

Just align the floor mats, mark & DRILL holes in the MATS where the factory fasteners hooks are, (2 on driver side - 1 on psngr side) install them and they WILL STAY in place ALL THE TIME!

There have been at least two types of factory floor mat anchors- the snap on pegs of our 2006 and the hooks of our 2009. Not sure when they changed, but OP may have gotten the wrong style?
