40 Trunk Mat Problems

[klawockvet]

I'm not sure where I purchased my trunk mat but it was back in 2013. It was kept in the original box unopened until last spring. I installed in the car in April 2016 and left the project, inside a closed shop until last fall. When I returned to the shop the mat was split along the ribs in many places. My 47 has a new looking trunk mat that was parked in the same shop under the same conditions and its mat is perfectly fine, just like it has been for years.
Before I shell out another $150 I want to make sure its from a vendor that doesn't sell what I had before.

I've had very good fortune with mats from Carpenter.

By the way, it is best to store mats in a flat (relaxed) state.

Like Kube says, Dennis Carpenter does good rubber stuff.
