I do like how the material wipes clean. Especially dog hair which was my biggest complaint with the stock carpet.
How about the front, good fit? I have a 2dr and just wanted to get the driver and passenger areas covered.

The front footwells fit pretty well. Under the seat is not as good.

Is it a big annoyance under the seat? Because as long as the parts that come in contact with people have good fitment I think I'll be ok... was watching for money the army owes me so I could buy it, but my impatience is leaving me toward diy bedliner

I had a Bedrug installed in a truck I used to have with a fiberglass top. The Bedrug was Awesome! Fit great, and it took the normal "ridges" out of the floor of the bed and made it super comfy to sleep on when camping.

overall i am glad i got it and i'd do it again if i got a new jeep.
I really liked the idea of the BedTred, but with some poor fitment and having the water get trapped underneath is not what I want. I think I will just spend a little more for Line X and not have to worry about it.

I'm thinking about the BedRug now and not the BedTred. I was thinking of LineX, but it won't provide the sound deadening that the carpet or BedRug will provide. Sound deadening is more important to me than keeping the dog fur off the carpet which is why I pulled them in the first place. BedTred IMO won't provide the same sound deadening as the BedRug. Any thoughts or issues with the BedRug??

Cannot comment on the BedRug, but I can comment on the sound deadening of BedTred.

I got my 2008 JK Rubicon used and it came without a carpet. It was crazy hot in Summer and when 4wheeling for hours, especially in 4Lo; and freaking cold in Winter, although the heater on the JK does a pretty good job of keeping it warm. Sound wise it was pretty loud, although I never took my hardtop off.

I started by using Truck Bedliner from Rustoleum, but I did not like the result. Especially because after mudding, when trying to clean the floor with a rug, it would get bit and pieces of the rug all over... so I pulled the trigger with a full BedTred and I can tell you it is a huge difference! If you still believe it gets hot inside - I don't! - you can use more aluminium shield to solve the situation. If you can also use sound deadening foam or some similar material, between the aluminium shield and the BedTred to reduce the noise inside the ****pit further.

I believe is one of the best upgrades I ever made on my JK.
