Last minute update. If anybody prefers the plastic snap fasteners to the black metal grommets, they can be replaced. I gently .... Carefully pried up the backing plate of the plastic snaps and they popped apart without too much damage. Then I removed the metal grommets ruining them in the process then snipped out a bit of material in the new mats as the plastic snaps have a bigger hole punched in the mat then the grommet end ones. The plastic halves pressed back together into the new mat perfectly

Well I should have checked more carefully. I assumed that since the mat was exactly the same shape that the snaps would be in the same place too. Wrong!  I took out my Husky winter mats today and was eager to install my new summer mats. Seems the floor posts in my '10 are in a slightly different spot. My advice now is to first test fit, or match to the old mat to determine if the position is right or not. If like me, it's not,then I would advise leaving the dark grommets that come in the replacement mat, and cut an entirely new hole for the original plastic snap. I used my old mat to locate where the new hole belongs. I used the piece  I cut for the new hole to make a cosmetic plug to fill in where the grommet used to be.

Now I think the reason these were selling so I expensively is because the grommets were in the wrong location.

Darn .... I never would have thought about the grommets being in the wrong area . I'm glad I didn't order .

That's one of the hazards of ordering online and I do that a lot too .

Duds happen .

Now that Larry has found and detailed a possible DIY solution, hopefully everyone can enjoy this great deal!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Mine came in, still in the box.  I'll hold on to them until my originals are worn.  Then I'll swap them out.
