before you glue anything dry fit the pieces you will be working on. they all overlap and if you screw up early it may bite you in the end.

i got mine from world upholstery and while i was happy with the carpet a later transaction kinda burned me with them.

the 3m 74 that i used should be applied to both surfaces, then sit for a minute or two (read the can). you have a couple tries to get the piece right so careful positioning is your friend. i suggest getting a scrap or sample of regular carpet from a store and practice gluing that to some wood. that should get you familiar with the work time. experience > instructions for that.

and thanks. it feels good to know you did the repair job to your car no matter if it is engine related or new carpet.

feel free to ask any questions there are lots of folks here who did it and can offer help. before you do that learn to love the search, and use the advanced to narrow your results.
