I used a heat gun. I got the carpet from a restoration company and the instuctions said to lay it in the car and use a heat gun to mold it to the floor. Just dont get too close and dont heat one spot for long.

I don't want to do OEM... I have a couple of designs I want to put in it. My cousin installs residential carpet and showed me how to 'glue' the seams together. so the heat gun trick sounds like the way to go. Thnx nova
