Does anyone know if the Weather Tec '09 Explorer floor mats fit the '09 sport trac?

If the Gen 2 (2007-10) only has rubber flooring like the 2001-05, WT LINERS (not mats) won't fit correctly. Tried them in my 2005 years ago and found the fit unacceptable.

I bought a set for my 2010, and they fit perfectly. All you have to do is remove the floor hooks. Weathertech may say the floor wells are different, but the only thing that's actually different is the position of the floor hooks. You can remove the hooks by prying them open with a small flat-tip screwdriver.
To keep them from slipping on the rubber floor, I put down some of the "grippiest" shelf liner that I could find under the floor liners. That did the trick for the front, but the back still slipped a bit, so I secured it with some sticky-backed Velcro.

Thanks for the replies. I already removed the hooks on the floor as the right driver side hook had torn thru the rubber floor. Pis poor desigh from Ford. The factory carpet inserts slip and slide all over the place. I see some Chinese made mats for the Explorer that includes the rear seas for 1/2 WT front only. Any one have any experience with them?

I should have listened. I bought the Chinese and what a disaster. They are going back. Anybody else had experience with the front WT mats for the Explorer? I hate to order a set @ $100+ and then not have them fit. I can't believe somebody doesn't make mats that fit the Sport Trac. HELP
