Posted by: hitbyastick Aug 11 2008, 04:25 PM

Hello,
I'm getting ready to install the carpet I got from morph into the car. Can anyone tell me where it's glued and where it's not? I can't tell by the old junk that came out of it.

Thanks,
Chris

rockers, left wheel house, rectangular piece behind the wooden pedal board, pass bulkhead only the rest lays in the car we use spray trim adhesive

Door sills, front bulkhead (driver & passenger), the rest is not glued. Use 3M super 77 adhesive, spray & wait till tacky then apply.

The only tricky part is the driver side sill with the ebrake depression - you'll need to stretch the carpet to press in and I would recomend you spray both the sill and the carpet and wait until really tacky then apply.

Thanks for the quick reply. That's what I needed to know

You really don't need to glue it in. The side pieces are held in by the threshold plate
screws. The front side pieces are secured by the speakers. Easier to get out in case
you need to clean them.

Does the threshold plate grab the door seal as well?

I agree, don't glue anymore than you need to. The threshold plate will enough to hold the side carpet in place. The plate also fits over the seal.
