Do you glue down every piece? I like the idea of things not moving around and I've bypassed the speedometer box (it's a '75) at the foot of the passenger side.
The only place I could see where you night not want to would be the front and rear access panels in the center tunnel. Anyone have experience here or sage advice? |

Thank you, @mmichalik , for prompting me to think about carpet again. Got the piece to redo the left wheel well several years ago, but didn't do anything. Now did it!
1. Before - original worn, tired and torn  2. After removal of old piece  3. Cleaned, painted and ready  4. Spray glue and initial Placement  5. Not professional-looking, but done!  Couldn't have done it without you! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Does emphasize the faded nature of the rest of the original carpet, but otherwise in good shape and striving to maintain originality of everything possible, despite blemishes and flaws (sort of like me....
