does any one have any idea's on how i can get the floor mats to stay where they are supposed to??

any time some one gets in and out of my car, the mats are always pushed up underneath the front seats, and then the rear mats are all deformed from that.

any help would be great..

TIA

 

I have the same problem when I have passengers and I decided that nobody knows how to get in and out of cars. My mat never moves but everybody else who rides in my car screws them up. It was the same way with my last car. If you just lift both your feet up and put them outside the car and then stand up your mat will not move at all. Everybody else I know leaves one foot in the car and pushes with it to get themselves out and it makes the mat move.

 

this is the greatest solution ever to be concived..

 

My brother's subaru has a peg coming from the floor that hooks onto the drivers side mat, of course that came out of the floor I'd really be interested in a solution though, it's kind of a universal problem.

 

hehe, maybe i'll just take out the rear mats all together..
and have no mats back there..
just leave the ones in the front.

 

I currently have a '99 Maxima and my floor mats don't move due to many small rubbers "spikes" under the mats that provide gripping. I cant comment on how the P5 mats are made, but maybe changing them will reduce your aggravation.

PS. Will be trading in the Maxima for a P5 so no one shoot me!

 

I have the same problem. All my mats move except for the drivers. And it stays put because of the afore mentioned peg. I am beginning to consider supergluing the hook side of some velcro to the bottom of the mats. They have the little rubber spikes too, but they don't work. Honestly, I have even considered putting a small screw in the corner of each one into the carpet.
Stocker.

 

I did exactly that some time ago to the front passegner mat of my P5. Problem solved. Get the velcro that comes on a roll, and glue a few strips a few inches long at several points on the underside of the mat.

 

you can go to wal-mart and you can get the strips of velcro that are about two inches wide...and have an adhesive back to them. it comes in a rool 5 feet long....works like a champ

 

u should buy the factory floor mats. they contour the inside of the car so good that no dirt will ever touch the carpet. plus, they stay put.

 

The P5 comes with factory floor mats, but the don't like to stay put.

Thanks for all the help.

 

Solution:

Go to wal-mart or target and buy that rubberized "contact paper." It costs around $5 a roll for 5'x20". It's the same stuff that some people use in there pantries, cabinets, and tool boxes. It's some sort of mesh stuff that is then covered with some sort of rubber.

 

Foxy, the mats DO HAVE spikes, but they don't do jack ****.
the mats still slide.

I'll try something soon.

 

Maybe someone already said this. I have no problem with the passenger mats in my Pro5. Factory mats, stay just fine. Driver's mat was always all over the place. Kept sliding up under the pedals. Asked the parts guy at the dealer. Bought a pegged braket that screws to the floor under the front of the seat. Put it under the carpet. Cut a small holl for the peg. Factory look. No more sliding mats. I think the passenger side has the same screw. Then you just need the nifty hole in the mat.

 

I agree, find a new family or new friends if they don't appreciate your car. Why can't people respect other's cars
and not eat/jump/and **** around.
