Default Floor Mats

I read about the popularity of Lloyds Floor Mats. What makes them so special vs. the OEM mats? Are there other aftermarket manufacturers of mats? Where is the best place to get them?
Have Mag Red with Cashmere on order and I really want to hide the ugly black carpet in the cargo area (anyone ever figure out what the logic was with that). Have not seen the Lloyds product in person so appreciate feedback.

The logic is, the black carpet will reflect a lot less in your rear window than will the cashmere carpet.

The black carpet in the hatch area is to reduce glare on bright, sunshiny days, same as the black on top of the dash.

I have the Lloyd's cashmere floor & cargo mats in my Mag Red w/ Cashmere Coupe. I'm happy with the quality and the looks - don't notice excessive glare.

I picked up the cashmere rear mat last week and I have not noticed a difference in the rear glass.

Quality of the carpet is better, the attachment hooks are hidden and you can get the C6 logo and "Corvette" on them. The Lloyd mats are a licensed GM product and there may not be any others out there at the present time.

I got my mats from PFYC (Parts For Your Car) a Forum vendor.
