They stay put pretty well, but I am going to install the hooks they supplied just to prevent them from slipping when I step in. That's the only time they seem to to shift.

I really like the Mazdatrix mats having the hooks included on theirs. Would you say it would be better to get the black colored one's or Burgundy one's? My worry is that the color won't match up 100% to my burgundy interior. The car already has a black two-tone setup going as the previous owner installed a black dash over to cover up the original one that was cracked.

You probably won't find a perfect match to the Burgundy. I think they are close depending on how badly your carpet is faded. The black might work for you since you have a black dash. Otherwise, your eyes would really be drawn to the mats if they were the only thing black. It's really lust your preference.

Thanks for the pic and update. I ordered the black ones to be on the safe side. I will take a picture and post it once they are on the car.
