So I have some nice looking floor mats. They sit on top of my carpeting. Only one small problem; after a while of driving they begin to bunch up on the accelerator pedal and keep my idle up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) (See first / top pic)

I keep having to reach down under the front of my seat and pull them back.

They have grommets for keepers but they don't line up with the stock pegs. (See middle pic) I was hoping to utilize the stock pegs. I have seen aftermarket generic clips (see Last / bottom pic). I was hoping to utilize the stock pegs...

I was hoping that someone else has solved this problem and could make recommendations so as to avoid a trial and error experience for myself.

Thanks in advance for the assistance.

Anyhow. Here is what I have made and am currently using.
Unless they somehow fail me or conflict with something later.
I will move on to my next project(s).

Like focusing on how to lower the overhead / cost of the big Alternator project.

Enjoy the pics.

I hope that this helped somebody out there.

Peace and Happiness.
