Doug, what did you do?

After further review....maybe nothing.
With the backpad in there and the different style center tray thingy, you don't see much.

Yup, the stock bulkhead pad obscures that space.

Yeah, my midget carpets only cover the area under the rear half of the seats. You win. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)

I finally got back to completing the carpet installation, especially for the main footwell pieces.

Here is the driver's side, carpet piece out, and too much and irregular projection of the side pieces onto the floor.

I trimmed the side pieces a bit, and neatened up the corners.

To hold the main carpet piece in place, I got this industrial strength Velcro. I left out the floor studs since I did not want big grommets in the carpet. But I still want to remove the main pieces easily.

I stuck the fuzzy side to the floor. The adhesive is very strong, and sticks well--including to the back side of the carpet.

I then placed the hook side onto the fuzzy strip, and took off the adhesive backing. This way I could place the carpet properly, and the Velcro would be lined up.

I put some weight on top, to make sure the adhesive sets tightly.

Another back-tracking detail. I used some paint to black out the flange of the targa bar that was barely visible behind the pad (in this shot ,the pad is pulled forward a bit). And yes, this pad is not really good enough, but maybe someday...

Now, onto the door frames. Here is a pair of new inner door seals.

And new plastic rivets. BTW, I did discover that the center stud has to first be snapped off the base, and then inserted into the center hole.

Thanks, guys. Maybe drive it inside?

Of course, I have to actually make it run before I worry about driving it.
