Hi everyone,
I have a 2018 F-type V6 and had a couple of questions I’m hoping someone can answer.
1) I need to get new floor mats for the driver and passenger sides and would love a recommendation of trusted sources.
2) I have had a long standing issue with the cargo cover not staying in position on the 2 plastic pegs. Is this a known issue and are there any specific fixes any of you have tried?
Thanks very much,
Nick
Can't help with floor mats other than there are threads/posts around here about them, search is your friend.
With the cargo cover sliding on the pegs, two fixes I know of:
1. What I did - wrap each peg with 10 or 12 rounds of electrical insulation tape, so that the slots in the cover which fit over the pegs fit nice and tight with no movement or rattle. I did this years ago and never had a problem since. May take some trial and error to get the number of turns / thickness of the wrap just right.
2. What others have done - fit foam/rubber rings/stoppers on the bases of the pegs so the cover can't slide left or right. Posts and threads around here somewhere showing types/sizes of rings/stoppers.

Jaguar issued "JTB00618 - parcel shelf loose or adrift" for this, Their fix is to apply a bush grommet on each side - p/n T2R35506
MIne fell off and got stuck against the rear hatch, which resulted in one of the cords snapping when I forced it open. That's not fixable and I had a new cover installed under warranty.
With respect to floor mats and cargo area mats, I would highly recommend Lloyd's Mats. They are custom fit with very thick matching charcoal carpet mats. I have them in my SVR, Corvette and 4Runner...
Here is the fix for the cargo cover or parcel shelf.
The link for the rubber spacers are unavailable but I did the measurements and found them with the below link.
If in time that link stops working use the below measurements.
