Use a heat gun or hair dryer. You may also need to use a little carpet adhesive, but most times the heat will do it.

Use the hair dryer first, then glue if you still need it. Use the hair dryer on the back side where you can still lift it up.

On some places I needed to VERY carefully trim the perimeter of the carpet so it could lay flat in the center of the piece I was working on. Your second picture looks like there needs to be some trimming of the carpet to get it to fit smoothly around the console bracket.
