OEM smart velour mats?

For those of you who recently purchased a set of OEM smart floor mats, can you please answer a simple question for me? I know smart did away with the extended piece on the driver's side mat, but I'm wondering if the new mats also only have the smart embroidered logo on the driver's side. I just picked up a set since winter is nearly over and it's time to retire my rubber mats, but I was a bit surprised to see that there is no smart logo on the passenger mat.

Thanks. I still don't understand why smart eliminated the foot rest piece.

The mats I got have a little smart car logo stitched on both...

Must be a different one than you are talking about.

my velour mats are also over a year old and look the same as Cube describes. (extended piece for the left foot and no logo on the passenger mat.)

And I'm not that happy with the wear they showed in one season.

I may just keep the rubber all-season mats in... unless zippy needs to look showy.

Do they have an actual smart part number on the back of them?

Any photos?

Hm, well, I got them at the dealership, they have a little smart car instead of the word smart stitched on them, they have gray edges, I'll look at them later today.

Probably because it keeps flopping over.

I wish the mats had grommeted holes in them and matching hooks on the floor (like our Corolla) to keep them from sliding around.

The all-weather mats have grommets and big "screws" that just hold the mat to the carpet, including one on the flap over the driver's side. Works very well. - sheureka
