3W Floor Mats for the Model Y Juniper: Full Set Installed

3W sent the complete floor mat set for the Model Y Juniper — front row, back row, trunk liners, frunk, and rear seat protectors. Here's the full install.

The R1S set got me here. I installed 3W mats on my Rivian and the fitment was good enough that I wanted to see what the Model Y Juniper version looked like. They sent the complete kit: front row driver and passenger, back row, sub-trunk liner, trunk liner, rear seat protectors, and frunk liner. Everything.

What’s in the Box

I laid everything out on the driveway before touching the car. When you see the full set spread out, it’s more coverage than you’d expect. Each piece has the 3W logo, and the front mats have the letter Y embossed into the surface — same treatment the back row gets.

One piece I hadn’t seen in other floor mat sets: there’s a small compartment liner that fits into the storage slot behind the second-row seats on the 5-seater. 3W includes it. It’s a detail most brands skip.

Construction and the VigorMold Pedal

The front mats use what 3W calls VigorMold — a one-piece aluminum pedal design built into the mat rather than a separate piece glued on. Load-bearing, anti-deformation, and according to them built for decades. The aluminum accent also breaks up what would otherwise be a fully black mat, which I didn’t mind.

Flip any of the mats over and you’ll see the spike pattern on the underside. No adhesive. The spikes engage the carpet and the mat doesn’t move. I noticed this during the back row install — it was catching on the carpet as I was positioning it, which is exactly what it’s supposed to do.

Installing the Front and Rear Rows

The front row goes in first. Driver side drops in and seats cleanly around the pedals. Passenger side has an additional under-seat storage pocket, same as the driver side — a recessed compartment built into the mat itself that sits flush underneath the front seat.

The back row is one wide piece. It runs under both front seats, extends into the center console area, and covers the full-width footwell. The spikes were catching on install — lift the leading edge, push in, seat it flat. Once it’s down it doesn’t move.

Trunk and Sub-Trunk Liners

The sub-trunk liner fits first. It has spikes like the floor mats. Lay the panels back over it and it disappears into the floor. The main trunk liner is one large piece with a fold engineered into it at the hinge point — when you lift the trunk floor to access the sub-trunk, the liner folds with it instead of popping up.

It’s thicker and heavier than the sub-trunk liner, and the texture is more pronounced. Texture on top means things don’t slide around when the trunk is loaded.

Rear Seat Protectors

The rear seat protectors attach with Velcro to the felt backing on the seat-back panels, so you can position them exactly where you want. The tether hook points are covered by default. On the back of each protector there are cut templates — if you need access to those hooks, you punch them out. Simple.

The frunk liner drops in without spikes — the plastic frunk shell holds it in place on its own. It exposes the drain plug, which matters if you’re hosing it out.

In Use

High walls are the practical argument for a set like this. Abby lets the kids bring food and drinks in the car. That’s the real-world case for floor mats with containment: not dirt, not dust, but a spilled cup at 70 mph. The walls on these are high enough that liquid stays in the mat rather than soaking into the carpet.

The aluminum pedal accent is visible when you’re seated. Some people will want that pop of silver; others will want all-black. Worth knowing before you order.

The full coverage set — every piece including frunk, trunk, sub-trunk, front, rear, and seat protectors — is the reason to go with 3W over a basic two-piece mat. If you’re hauling gear, doing road trips in the Juniper, or just dealing with kids and drinks in the back seat, a fully covered floor is a lot easier to clean than carpet.
