I doubt that there's much to consider with this. The main piece just lays in the main cargo floor, but you might want to consider lifting the crimp that held the original and then tapping it down to hold the carpet in place. If you do this, use a block of wood to hammer on so to not damge the crimp rail. Do this carefully to avoid finishing and discovering that it shifted on you in the middle of the job. Don't glue this piece down at all. There may be a smaller piece that you could glue on the rear of the rear seat back. If you do this, you should probably make sure to remove all of the original rubber mat first. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
