How to Securely Attach a Trunk Mat?
2 Answers
Fold down and flatten all seats, then install the backrest mat and trunk mat in sequence. Align the trunk mat with the corners of the seats. Firmly attach the hook-and-loop fasteners to the fabric surface behind the car seat backrest. Install the side mats, ensuring the backrest is in a folded and flattened state during installation. Raise the seats back to their normal position to complete the installation.
Having replaced trunk mats three times, here’s the most practical method: Opt for adhesive-backed hook-and-loop fasteners—stick the loop side to the car’s fabric lining and the hook side to the mat’s back. Key areas are the four corners and center. Before applying, clean both surfaces with alcohol for a rock-solid hold. Even a weekly grocery haul won’t shift it. If your car has built-in positioning clips, simply snap the mat into place—replacement clips cost just a few bucks online. I also add clear anti-slip silicone pads along the edges (nearly invisible, available at hardware stores).
