Several brands manufacture floor mats for Mazda vehicles. You will find genuine OEM carpets as well as rubber mats by reputable brands. For example, Weathertech and Lloyd Mats offer vehicle-specific floor mats for the MX-5.
- Weathertech uses a digital laser to measure the cars interior. This process aligns the mats perfectly with the front, back, and sides of the footwell for a custom fit. The brand offers all-weather mats made of high-density materials for added strength. The material does not crack when exposed to cold temperatures. Deep trenches keep liquids from touching the feet and the bottom of pants. Carpet-grabbing spikes keep the mat in position.
- You will find Lloyd Mats in both durable rubber and treated nylon. They also fit the precise shape of your Miatas floor and feature a unique fluid-trapping design. Small tips on the underside prevent sliding. The mats are available in a variety of colors with and without the Miata logo.
- Genuine OEM carpet mats for the MX-5 fit like a glove. They feature either a Miata or an MX-5 imprint. Pre-drilled holes allow you to anchor the mat to the floor.
