Frequently Asked Questions About Freightliner FL70-FL80 Floor Trim

What years and models does this floor trim fit?

Our Freightliner FL70-FL80 floor trim is designed to fit FL70 and FL80 models from 1994 through 2007. This includes both manual and automatic transmission configurations. However, some custom cab configurations or aftermarket modifications may affect fitment. We recommend checking your specific VIN or contacting our support team if you have a non-standard cab setup.

What material is the floor trim made from, and how durable is it?

The floor trim pieces are manufactured from heavy-duty ABS plastic or aluminum, depending on the specific product you select. The ABS plastic options feature UV-resistant coating to prevent fading and cracking, while aluminum pieces come with a brushed or polished finish. Both materials are designed to withstand daily commercial use, resist moisture damage, and maintain their appearance for years with proper care.

How difficult is the installation, and what tools do I need?

Installation typically takes 1-2 hours and requires basic hand tools including a Phillips screwdriver, trim removal tools, and possibly a drill for certain applications. Most pieces use existing mounting holes and clips, though some models may require minor drilling. The trim comes with installation hardware, but you may need to reuse some original clips. Professional installation is not required, but having a second person helps when aligning longer pieces.

Will this floor trim work with aftermarket floor mats or insulation?

Yes, our floor trim is designed to accommodate standard thickness rubber floor mats up to 3/8 inch thick. If you have thicker commercial-grade mats or added sound deadening material, you may need to trim the mats slightly around the edges or adjust the trim mounting height. The trim pieces have enough flexibility to work with most common aftermarket flooring upgrades without modification.

What finishes are available, and do they match the original interior?

We offer floor trim in black textured plastic, gray textured plastic, and brushed aluminum finishes. The black and gray options are designed to match OEM interior colors for most FL70-FL80 models. The textured finish helps hide wear and scratches better than smooth surfaces. While the trim may not be an exact color match to sun-faded original pieces, they provide a clean, professional appearance that complements both restored and working truck interiors.
