Carpet fixing points
Posted: Fri Mar 25, 2016 6:04 am
I want to know how many press studs to use for the floor sections of the carpet on a 1963 2-door saloon and where they should be positioned.
Some traders sell them in packs of 10, however, a lot of carpets sold nowadays have the front seat fixings bolted through the rear carpet mat, which is incorrect, hence, packs of 10 carpet studs could also be wrong.
I realise that the sill bits and the bit below the back seat have to be glued.
Perhaps a concours judge could settle this as I don't want to drill holes in the floor pan in the wrong place or drill too many holes.
I would like to get back into concours, which is why I would like this to be correct.
Many thanks
