Securing floor mats
 
None of my floor mats are attached to the car carpet, and the driver's mat slips and slides. Drives me crazy. Anyone have a quick fix?

Daphne, do you have the velcro pucks in the carpet for the mats to stick to?

Definitely get the velcro.....should be inexpensive. I also recommend the rubber all weather floormats......I love them & I don't have to worry about keeping the carpeted mats clean..........


Daphne, where in TN are you located? I'm in Knoxville.......

the rubber ones slide all over the place too, drives me crazy as well ..

Mine are really heavy OEM all weather mats and they don't move at all and I haven't even used the fasteners on them. I was going to install them, but I wanted to try without 1st just to see if they slide - so far, they haven't moved even 1/2 inch..............money well spent - and I got a good discount from my salesman..........

i got mine from the dealer for free, they are the OEM octagon shape fasteners , the parts counter guy found a pair lying around and I was trying to pay for them but they could not find the part numbers to bill me so they just gave them to me FREE! :D

Just a small hole, nothing else.

Daphne, ask your dealer for the velcro holders for your floor mats. They are round, about the size of a small can of soda.

Sometimes you can pick these up on ebay. Search for floor mats.

I don't get this thead: my ol' '01 came with v. good carpet mats held down by a pair of plastic velcro sided "pucks" that twist into a small notch on floor. They move a touch on a long trip, but I just reposition the mats on the pucks. I thought mats and this attachment sys. were pretty std?
