Per a suggestion from this forum, I chose not to use a drop of glue in my carpet install. I bought a carpet cutting scissors similar to the pair below, and used a few strategically placed pieces of velcro strips to secure the carpet. There are a sufficient number of interior trim pieces that will securely capture the carpet. I could have used a few more strips of velcro on the rear wheel well area but have been too lazy to install them.
Get it nice and warm and more or less laid out flat-ish for a few days before you start
3M windoweld in strip form, comes in a roll, sticky but will allow you to slowly pull the carpet up later without damage. I used it for all inside corners where there was nothing to hold the carpet tight. mainly along the side of the tunnel and in some areas in the rear.
A cheap soldering iron works great for punching holes for bolts and seals the cut so it doesn't tear
measure, cut less, measure again, cut less, and sneak up on the final
