Floor mats come in different shapes and sizes. Cheap tends to be a universal fit that leaves large gaps of exposed carpet to collect dirt. While custom floor mats are better, often times they do not hug the walls of your footwell leaving gaps around the edges. That means you'll still be cleaning your carpet often. Let us offer you a better solution.

Only get quality floor mats that properly protect to keep your HiLux clean. Otherwise, why bother? It's important to not only judge them by looks but also what's on the inside. It's the insides that determine how well it protects, how much less time you spend cleaning and how they hold up over time. Our Bucket Mats are made from automotive thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) which in plain English, is like a cross between plastic and rubber. Here are the specs.
Our TPE Specifications
More than just strength, rigidity and longevity, TPE is easy to clean with a quick vacuum or spank. We have also visited the factories to check if offcuts and wastage is recycled as much as practical. That means less landfill so Bucket Mats are better for the environment. Bonus!
With so many choices out in the market, it can get confusing. To keep things simple, there are basically 3 types of floor mats being carpet, rubber and more recently, TPE. Next, decide if you want to go generic or custom made. Let's unpack that now.
Things to consider
The bottom line. If you only toot around town and rarely get off the beaten path, go for carpet. It's comfy, cheap and you can find them anywhere. On the other hand ... heaven forbid if you've spilt your latte or kids have dropped melted ice-cream again. 😩 It's going to spread onto your original carpet floor and stink up the place!
There's no point crying over spilt milk (see what I did there? 😏) Saving a little money now may not be the wisest decision. Upgrade to rubber or TPE. They're heavy-duty, protect from spills and are super easy to clean. While both are similar in price and performance, only TPE can be molded 3D with deeper walls to hold liquid. You might as well take the small step up to TPE.
A Hilux doesn’t sit still. It’s on a job site one day, out bush the next, then hauling the family around in between. That kind of abuse use brings plenty of mess along for the ride. Fine dust, wet boots, tools, crumbs, the lot. It builds up quickly and your carpet wears it.
Standard mats do a standard job but Bucket Mats take it further by protecting areas that standard mats usually miss. Built from tough TPE and shaped by deep bucket walls, they catch more dirt, hold more water plus anything else that lands in your footwell. The taller bucket walls, tighter edges along the footwells and coverage over door sills and under seats means more mess stays contained instead of creeping out onto your carpet floor. TPE is also super durable and easy to clean with a spank or quick vacuum 😉. That spells L-E-S-S C-L-E-A-N-I-N-G for you. Just protection that works.

The HiLux sees more than your average runabout, so you need more than a basic mat. Bucket Mats are made from durable TPE and designed with high bucket walls and extended coverage, so they actually contain the mess instead of letting it spread. More protection. Less clean-up. Simple as that.
No, they are locked in. Bucket Mats have such tight tolerances that once you drop them into the footwells, they are not going anywhere ... even when you try to kick it. It is a snug fit that minimises gaps around the edges so more dirt can't escape and sprinkle onto your carpet floor. They're shaped for your HiLux so they protect your ute without you having to think about it. Do the kick test yourself and give Bucket Mats a go.
It's quick and easy. Since they're so massive, most of the dirt is inside the Bucket Mat so a quick vacuum is all that's needed. Alternatively, pull them out and give them a spank. If they’re caked in mud or grime, hose them off and but do let them dry. Then back in they go. Avoid using turps, chemical or harsh cleaners. It doesn't need it.
Rubber mats are solid choice for tough use while carpet mats suits light duty driving. Bucket Mats combine the durability of rubber with extended coverage, reaching under seats, over door sills and hold more liquid with high walls.
This means it will stop more dirt and hold more spills from spreading. Your interior will stay cleaner for longer. When its time to clean, you won't be on your hands and knees. It's super easy with a quick vacuum or spank.
They will, as long as you pick the right model year and variant. These Toyota HiLux floor mats are designed for a proper fit, so they sit flat, stay in place and cover your footwell properly. Choose carefully as Bucket Mats are not interchangeable between the variants. Here's a handy simple table to help you choose.
