• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

OEM All Weather Premium Cargo Mat with 60/40 Seatback Protection

Haha I got my floor mats, cargo mat, badges, caliper paint and ceramic coating shop picked out...just need my baby.
Dang bro, you are way ahead of me! I just need the caliper paint. I’m thinking red. Got a few recommendations for the PPF. Undecided on the ceramic.

So Friday is supposed to be my big day. Nervous as heck until she gets here. Hope the car fits the mats. 😆
 
I got a call from Tuner Kia today. I should have my liner by Thursday. Total price turned out to be ~$236 shipped to IL. Ted told me he has 7 orders in line.
 
This floor mat doesn’t allow removal of the rear cargo cover? It’s a single piece? I mean the floor cover, which lifts completely off. Here’s a pic of it open, but not removed.

I just called Ted @ Tuner Kia today as well, took my name and number. Mentioned that he isn't sure if they are going to be getting any in the next shipment but I'm hoping they can order more of these! Said the earliest I'd hear back from him was about a week.
 
Thought I’d ask again… If you will post your ZIP Code, I can analyze the distribution cost and subject to the size of the group explore this further. My current plan is to buy some in bulk and then re-distribute to the group.
I’m interested. 22306

I am not sure what you are asking, but the cargo mat is 1 piece(cargo+seat back). I don't have the mat nor my car yet but there is bit of slack between the seat back and the cargo area. So even with cover removed, I would guess the cargo area will lay flat on the bottom portion.

Thanks to all who have done the legwork for this. I just got off the phone with Ted at Turner Kia- he was super easy to work with and knew what I was going to ask for when I said he was “internet famous”!

He was able to get his first three 60/40 mats in with no problem. Today he ordered another dozen from the same guy in Canada and is waiting on confirmation. I am now #9 on that list.

Cost will be $209 plus shipping to your zip code. He said shipping from him on the East coast to California was only $25. I’m in Denver so expecting a little less expense.

He will call me within a week to confirm the order and take payment. He also said another forum user is going to post an installation video here?

We should send Ted a fruit basket or something, haha!

I now feel cheated getting charged ~$30 for shipping to IL now. :)
 
I’m sure it varies. Did yours come in?
Should be at my doors tomorrow.

If I had a need for one of these later, after covid, and still only available in Canada, I assume I could order through a dealer and pick up? We are a 30 minute drive from Windsor, Ontario. No special handshake needed?

It is Kia Canada OEM part, as long as they don't discontinue(rain guards), you should be able to pick up at any Canadian dealer. I would call ahead though.

Except is the border open due to COVID?

That’s why I said after Covid. They don’t want us now!
 
I just stumbled upon this thread looking for the best seat protectors. I actually purchased my Telly from Turner Kia and need to drop her off next week to fix the driver side mirror camera. I'll be sure to check with Ted about the cargo mats. :)
 
Hello all, I am the "infamous" Ted from Turner KIA. I currently have orders for 17 mats. I have ordered 25 to fulfill those orders plus anyone else who is interested up to the 25. I should have confirmation by the end of day tomorrow. After that it is approximately a week until they arrive. Once I have them in my possession I will contact the people who have reached out to me. The easiest way to get a hold of me is to email me at ted.althouse@turnerautos.com. For what ever reason and if you receive a mailbox full notice, I have received your email. Thank you all for your interest.
