Hyundai Getz rubber car mats

Last week, I bought some Hyundai Getz rubber car mats to pimp my ride, my Hyundai Getz, Gina. I wasn’t entirely satisfied with the standard Hyundai Getz rubber car mats that came with my Hyundai Getz.

These standard Hyundai Getz rubber car mats are the see-through, lightweight rubber car mats that slide easily with every shift of one’s foot. If the purpose, after all, of Hyundai Getz rubber car mats are to protect the car’s natural carpeting, these particular rubber car mats do not work, as they slide under the Hyundai Getz chair, or run haphazard along the car flooring. They were terrible.

So I bought these heavy Looney Tunes rubber car mats from SM Hypermart in North EDSA. I chose the design that featured Taz, the Tasmanian Devil, not because I particularly like that character but more because Taz’s brown-beige color matches the golden beige color of my Hyundai Getz. (Yes, I make decisions that do take color into consideration.) These new Looney Tunes Hyundai Getz rubber car mats are large and heavy, which would make it more difficult to slide or budge out of place. Their color schemes match our Getz, and add a touch of whimsy to the otherwise elegant, almost staid, look that I’m trying to achieve for Gina.

Anyway, I tried these rubber car mats on Day One and found, much to my horror, that there was a heavy chemical smell that permeated my Hyundai Getz. How do I remove the smell or odor of rubber car mats? After researching on the Internet, I learned that one way to remove the smell from rubber car mats is to expose them to the sun for several days. So that’s what I’m doing right now. Hopefully, in about a week’s time, the smell will be gone, I can pop these rubber car mats into my Hyundai Getz, and I can take photos.
