And the text from the review:

I bought these through autoanything and they arrived in one box. I was first surprised how thin the plastic was. I took the mats out and let them warm up in the house after being outside most of the day. Since the plastic was so thin I was worried about tearing or cracking it when cold and trying to fit them.

After they warmed up I started with the driver's mat. It laid in place without having to adjust the seats and it snapped right on to the factory clips. It fits nice and snug all the way around forming a nice bucket to catch the slush. Even where the clips snap in they are up-raised from the floor so water won't leak through to the carpet. I did notice there is no cutout for the fuel door release. So every fill up my wife will have to lift up the mat, or we need to cut a hole in the mat compromising the waterproof liner. I expect this from the $12.99 mats from target but for $75 for the front pair there should be a better well-thought-out option.

On to passenger side, same great fit, but instead of snapping on to the clips there is just a bump the clip get set under. The mat is still very secure to the carpet, but why build around the clip knowing its there and not use it? Troubling

The 2nd row mat I decided to get because instead of two mats, it was one long one that covered all the carpet. It was a bit more difficult to drop in place, although I didn't move the front seats at all. I was delighted to see how far under the front seats they went. The back mat fit great up to the door, but not perfect butting up to the back of the center console. I think this was because this mat was folded when shipped and the edge was warped. It not a deal breaker, and I doubt it will cause any issue but I noticed because I was two inches from it moving it into place.

Overall

Great fit in front, but the passenger side should snap in and a solution to a hidden fuel door should be made. The back covers all the carpet even over the center bump, but may be creased on an edge lip due to shipping.

If interested I can take some pictures and put them up on amazon later.
 
Same impression I had with these mats when I first got them. Five months and going strong though. I did email Husky and ask them why they did not put clips on the PS mat, but never got a response from them.
 
i have the same mats.

i have the front and rears also, but since i have hardly carried any rear passengers, I can't comment on how it holds up with snow/slush...etc. But fit wise, i think it was pretty good.

For the front I really like the fast that the driver dead pedal is covered quite well compared to say Weathertech. i can rest my foot there not worrying getting the carpet dirty. I have had snow/slush/water in there and it's held it in there well. The gas door cover release is annoying but not that big of a deal. The passenger side seems to work fairly well also. I haven't even clipped my mats in to be honest. They are just sitting on top of the summer carpet mats and i have no sliding/slippage issues.

If there is one downfall, i wish the material was a bit tackier as when wet, it is a bit slippery.
 
I'm happy with my Husky mats. Someday I might even cut a slot for the fuel lid lever, but I don't fuel up that much to be a bother.
