They have a metal ring grommet.

I got them. You are right I'm not disappointed. Color and material are perfect. Fit and workmanship are top notch. The backing is rubber with numbly fingers to prevent moving around. My originals were a smooth felt like backing so I like these better than my OE. my only slight negative is the snap fasteners for the drivers side. The replacements have a black grommet that slips over the post rather than snapping in. I'm going to explore the possibility of removing the plastic snaps from my OE mat and replacing the black grommet. If I can't ...no big deal. I am very pleased with them regardless of price and for what I paid...they are a steal
Last minute update. If anybody prefers the plastic snap fasteners to the black metal grommets, they can be replaced. I gently .... Carefully pried up the backing plate of the plastic snaps and they popped apart without too much damage. Then I removed the metal grommets ruining them in the process then snipped out a bit of material in the new mats as the plastic snaps have a bigger hole punched in the mat then the grommet end ones. The plastic halves pressed back together into the new mat perfectly

Great info... Thanks Larry!

Well I should have checked more carefully. I assumed that since the mat was exactly the same shape that the snaps would be in the same place too. Wrong! I took out my Husky winter mats today and was eager to install my new summer mats. Seems the floor posts in my '10 are in a slightly different spot. My advice now is to first test fit, or match to the old mat to determine if the position is right or not. If like me, it's not,then I would advise leaving the dark grommets that come in the replacement mat, and cut an entirely new hole for the original plastic snap. I used my old mat to locate where the new hole belongs. I used the piece I cut for the new hole to make a cosmetic plug to fill in where the grommet used to be.

Mine came in, still in the box. I'll hold on to them until my originals are worn. Then I'll swap them out.
