Great thanks for the advice guys. I just wanted to say that in no way was I trying to dump on weather tech. They were quite cordial in the return but I just could not understand why first set of mats did not fit and hopefully this saves others from buying the wrong type. Cheers.

I ended up getting the monster mats from Audi, well worth it, and they will last the entire life of your car..

Sorry to drag up an older thread, but I thought it would be better than starting a new one.

Anyway, I'm in the same situation: looking for floormats for my 2010 A3.

I take it the Weathertech All Weather ones are good? I do a lot of mountain biking (and also hiking with the dog) and the footwells of the car are getting pretty dirty. Also, i know that I'll kill the stock floor mats in a year or two with my heal.

I guess the other options are the audisport winter mats and the weathertech digitalfit mats.

Anyone have any experience with these mats? I'm not concerned about +/- $50 either way - just want to have good protection for the car, a solid non-slip surface, and I don't want the mats to start curling up over the years (especially on the digitalfit ones).

Thanks!

Sorry for the tardy reply....If you want Weather Tech go for the "Floor Liner" model. They are more expensive than All Weather versions but they will fit correctly as stated by others in the various post in this thread and when I called them they told me the same thing about the Digital Fit Floor Liner model.

The WT "All Weather" model do not fit the A3 correctly. That is what I originally bought and found out. I don't know what model year A3 you have but on my 2006 those did not even fit the pegs...as shown in the original post in this thread.

WeatherTech Floor Liner == Good for A3
WeatherTech All Weather == Does not fit the A3

Cool - thanks for the update! It's a 2010MY A3, so it's probably similar to your 2006???

I'll go check them out and probably order them!

Thanks!
