Weathertech website is giving me two different prices.

http://www.weathertech.com/store/mvp...OptChoiceIds=9
$94.95

This is Weathertech Canada
http://www.weathertechcanada.com/sto...OptChoiceIds=9
$139.95

Since I live in canada does this mean I have to purchase the $139.95.
Would it be cheaper to buy the 139.95 cause i wont be paying customs and etc.?

you'll save like $10-15 buying stateside through a distributor, or just pay the extra bit and get it direct in Canada

i don't know about quality on the battlendless, but the weathertech ones are top notch and fit and finish is incredible. it wouldn't even be a question in my mind... only way I'd consider something else is if it was OEM Honda or real Mugen, but with price in mind I'm sure the Weathertech ones would still win

I would get the OEM ones. They will fit properly and will come with a Honda warranty. If you're spending $20000 plus on a car, why cheap out over a few bucks on parts for it.

Anything with the word "style" in it I would stay away from. To me that just means they look similar to the real thing.

OEM or Weathertech, but find out who manufactures the OEM ones before you buy them. If they're HOP or Vision or something, get those. Cuz some Honda dealers sell non-Honda accessories to make extra cash, so the last thing you'd want is to buy VentShade garbage from the dealer.

Are you talking about tint? I think that's about how much I paid for at Audio Heaven, however, the tint at Audio Heaven comes with lifetime warranty and they use one of the best tints on the market. I guess it's up to you where you'll get the tint done.
