Crystalworks the fronts are exactly the same except they have weaved in the two circular velcro discs that mate with the circular locking pads that attach to the floor of the X5. So you get the horizontal weaved velcro strips plus the built in circular ones so they are not moving nor are they deteriorating. My old mats were in good shape but those glued on velcro pads came loose and the foam backing began to deteriorate and moved every time I used the X5. Drived me crazy. This OE solution while more expensive than the replacement mats is far superior in construction and function.
