Replacing your car mats not only gives the interior of your car an upgrade but also protects your car’s original upholstery. Car mats protect your car from wear and tear, moisture and dirt. This is particularly important during prolonged periods of bad weather. Repeatedly getting into your car with wet or dirty shoes can damage the upholstery. Without mats, moisture and dirt have free rein and can even cause permanent stains on the upholstery. If a lot of moisture gets into the car in a short period of time, it could even leak through to the bottom of your car, increasing the risk of corrosion. New car mats therefore not only spruce up your interior but are also functional. Of course, detachable mats are also practical, since they can be easily removed for cleaning.
