Must-have interior accessories for the new Rivian R1S Dual-Motor?

Question

picking up my dual-motor r1s next week and im kinda stressing about keeping the interior clean with my two kids and our weekend trips to the rainy cascades. ive been looking at floor mats and im torn between the 1ev ones and the weathertechs. the 1ev look cooler but weathertech is like the gold standard right? my logic was to get the mats and then maybe a screen protector but im stuck between the spigen one and just a cheap generic one from amazon. i only have about 450 bucks left in my budget for this stuff before the wife cuts me off lol. which combo would you go with for maximum protection?

Unfortunately, most popular floor mats are a letdown because they leave way too much carpet exposed on the sidewalls, which is a disaster with kids and rainy weather. I had issues with fitment on the big brands where edges didnt stay flush, which can actually be a tripping hazard if they curl. If you want real protection for that budget, id go this route:TuxMat Rivian R1S Full Set All-Weather Floor Mats vs the 1ev ones: these have way more vertical coverage, tho they are bulkier to install.BestEvMod Rivian R1S 2nd Row Seat Back Protectors: mandatory for kids, unlike generic mats which leave seat backs exposed to muddy boots.Abstract Ocean Rivian R1S 15.6 Inch Matte Screen Protector: much better glare reduction than cheap generic ones which are not as good as expected for clarity. This combo stays under your 450 limit while covering spots people forget until its too late. Honestly, skipping seat back protection is a mistake you dont want to make.

ive been through a dozen different mat brands over the years and honestly, for the r1s, id skip the generic route. in my experience, the WeatherTech FloorLiner for Rivian R1S tends to be a bit too rigid and sometimes curls at the edges after a summer of heat cycles. i switched to the 1EV Team 1EV R1S All-Weather Floor Mats for my own truck because they use a higher grade TPE that stays supple but still catches all that cascade mud. plus they look way more factory than the industrial weathertech vibe. for the screen, dont cheap out with a generic amazon sheet. the Spigen Glas.tR EZ Fit Screen Protector for Rivian R1S is worth the extra 20 bucks just for the auto-alignment frame alone. trying to line up a massive screen manually is a nightmare and youll end up with bubbles that drive you crazy... ask me how i know. stick with that combo and youll have plenty left over for a good trunk liner.
