Okay guys, I need help with how to stick my new capet down on top of the dynamat so it doesn't slip around. I am also having trouble getting my new kick panels with speakers to adhere. Any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks for all the help.

messy
It's a mess but it works. I buy the big tubes of construction adhesive. Tube it on then smear it around with rubber gloves. You have to change gloves often. At one time I found gallon cans of Liquid Nail. I can't find it any more. Open the shop doors, it stinks.

By the time you put the seat in and screw down the sill plates the carpet shouldn't move. 3M makes a contact cement if you are trying to cover the kick panels that will work just fine. If you are trying to attach the panels to the inside of your cab you could try some Velcro or sheet metal screws. I don't think using an adhesive is a good idea cause it's too permanent.....Big Tim
thanks guys. i appreciate it
I wasn't sure it was okay to put screws in the kick panels, if it get screwed into something it shouldn't
