Sweet! Lot's of options to customize. Had to register an email address to check 'em out. No Costco in my area. I'd have to order online.

I have their seat covers, floor mats and dash cover, Great quality, fit, price and appearance. Outstanding variety of colors and materials.

BTW: They have the products for the 450 also.

I receive nothing if you purchase.

Unless you have the black interior, I highly recommend getting a custom dash mat for your fortwo. Without the reflection form the dash, clarity through the windshield is greatly improved. My fortwo has the tach and clock pods and the dash mat I bought had no provision for them. But it worked out well to slit the seam to allow the dash mat to wrap around them.

I didn't like the idea of putting the sticky velcro tabs on the dash to hold it down. This isn't a problem unless I drive with the windows down on the freeway (never). Even with the velcro tabs this might be a problem if you have a cabrio and put the top down.

I think I paid about $35 for mine. The Costco price sounds like a great deal.
