Default Floor mat advice..

I hate the floor mats in my 2006 C6. The little connect points are cheap, and without a hook, the mats move around. I see tons of stuff regarding the lloyds mats. Are they better? Do they move around as well? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Mine fit so well that I don't think they would move even without mounting tabs

For comparison. Factory mat on the right. Lloyd's on the left. No contest.

Sign up at AUTOANYTHING for their emails. I got about 20% off and free shipping! I buy from them regularly. Great service and pricing with the discounts.

Another vote for Lloyds. They were in the car when I bought it (August 2015) unsure how long they were there before that.
But they don't move and they seem to be showing no signs of wear. I daily my car too.

The Lloyds mats are great , but the stock mats have the rubber pad on them for your heels to rest on , so they do last longer...I go through a set of Lloyds mats in just a few years.....WW

LLoyds are great...as everyone has eluded. I just bought a set for my son's SRT8 from Autoanything. Back when I bought my Vette, I happened to get a smokin' deal on my Lloyds from a vendor on Ebay. He had a full set (brand new) that were used in a promotional video. They still had the tags on them, and the embroidery has the C6 logo along with the Grand Sport emblem. The auction had a "make offer" option and I offered $115 and that included the both fronts and rear cargo with the same emblems; and free shipping. He wrote back and accepted. Score!

+1 for Lloyds. I have the ones pictured above with flag logo. Great quality, they do NOT move around a bit. Get them, you won't be disappointed.

The factory mat in my '13 GS is more like the Lloyds mat and not the "rinky dink" one shown. Not exactly apples-to-apples. Looks like Lloyds has many quality levels and it would be nice if people posting would indicate what they have.

I have the "Classic Loop" in my C6. I went with the cheapo set for lighter weight as mine is primarily a race car and I needed to cut them to clear the roll cage and five point harness crotch mount. If you have Ebony interior make sure you order that color not Black as I did the first time.

I have the "Ultimat" in my C5. A bit heavy for a race car but very plush and still look good after many years.

Lloyds mats are a definite
