Yes, it was the dead-pedal coverage that caused me to switch from the OEM winter floor mats to the 3dMaxpider front mats. After each of the first 2 winters, it took significant work to remove the dried salt from the undercarpet at the base of the dead pedal. I still use the OEM winter floor mats for the rear. Even though they don't cover the center hump, I never carry 3 passengers back there. It's easy to remove the large logos from the 3DMaxpider mats by popping off the press-on connectors on the underside. I don't notice the texture-less area that remains after the logos are removed.
I have been looking for an alternative for a while. Here is a great solution I found: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08TLTFKX3 It has color options too.
