H2 is definitely different than the 2005 H2. I had an Engineer check this
part and they told me it was the same except for the run-off on the kick
panel (the area I had radius on the part). They also indicated that the wall
along the kick panel was snug, so I had that moved .350 inward. However,
this does not make the part fit. We will have to make a different tool to
accommodate all the necessary changes.

Has anyone gotten an update on these modifications on the mats. What exactly is available that WILL fit an 06 which is apparently different from 05 and earlier.

Hey Bro, they ended up sending me some of their regular mats for the front until they get their machine re-tooled for the '06 changes. I will update you as soon as I get the newly updated mats.

Tomp,
Do you have a phone number for Husky?

Thanks

DeBest, looks like they got the new 2006 liners ready. Steve has them in his office, but before they can ship he will need to do a confirmation on an actual H2 to ensure the fitment.

Here is a pic of what they look like:

Oh no, I just noticed that they made the indention on the wrong floormat! The indentation was suppose to be on the left side of the driver's floormat for the kick panel and they put it on the passenger side!

Oh well, back to the drawing board

tomp,
Thanks for the update I have been waiting for them, I do not care for the Catch All version at all. Let me know when you hear anything about this problem. I appreciate your help!!!

Here is their reply:

"The parts fit good and we have since ran the mold (and have inventory). Your
parts should be on their way. I will be out of the office today and
tommorrow but will check back with you on Friday."

tomp,
Will you let me know when you recieve the mats and have a chance to see if this solves the fit problem? I would appreciate it. Will they sell direct, so that I can make sure to get the right part number?

[tomp]

As soon as I can verify the fitment for myself, I will ask him. Do you already own a set, so we can have him send you the new one as a replacement?

[DeBest]

Tomp,
Yes I do own a set that was purchased in October, I bought them online and I tried to contact the vender on several occasions regarding the bad fit and my inquires were NEVER addressed. I doubt I have any leg to stand on at this point, other than a mat that clearly does not fit!!!

Thanks
Scott

[tomp]

Call them directly and tell them what is wrong. They didn't even ask for my receipt or the old mat back.

Tomp
Thank you for all the GREAT advice and the follow up to this post that you have done over the past couple of months!!!

No, those fit fine. I've had 2 sets.

Maybe he needs to align them better.

[DeBest]

Tomp,
Do you know what Steve's last name is @ Husky. I called them today and the woman who claimed to be in Customer Service was not willing to help at all, she just said that they would be willing to sell me a new set instead of just the one that I need!!!

Thanks
Scott

I wouldn't offer to buy anything, as they owe you a liner that fits your H2 correctly.
