Please tell me that is a joke? Do they at least use a color coordinated cable tie?

If you were a lady with high heals, it could get caught in that entering or exiting the vehicle.

I can't say it but certainly hope so.

Anybody owns a Toyota or Lexus and can confirm?

hopefully they will be able to request a gold colored zip-tie to match all the toyota/lexus "gold" emblem and lettering that they got as an option on the exterior...

If I brought my brand new $50K+ luxury vehilce into the dealer and they gave it back to me with a M F'n Zip Tie?!?!? I would ask for an extra one and then zip it around the service guys neck!

FAIL!!!

i have to applaud them on getting a quick fix out... but at least have it color matched and make it less obvious that a zip tie is holding the mat in place. it looks so cheap that its simple brillance is not seen. This is were astetics comes in toyota!!!!

thanks infiniti for already thinking about a sliping matt and including a "mat pin"
