Default Floor Mats

I am trying to find a set of floor mats for my 93 coupe that have the velcro on them to match up with velcro on the carpet. I have a set with the "No Skid" rubber things on the back but they still move when I get in and out of the car. All the places I have looked have the rubber backs. I'm headed to Carlisle with a list and these are on it. Any help would be appreciated.

I had the same annoying problem with my Lloyds. Home depot industrial strength velcro seemed to do the trick. Used it om my black outs also.

I'm using aftermarket 'alligator clips' that have a heavy duty clamp which clamps onto the mat and the other end of the clip has a pointy 'S' bent spear thingy that pushes through the carpeting. It holds like it was superglued. Don't ask me where I got them since they are 20 yrs old and I recently found them on my workbench shelf.......

I just saw some kind of clips on some web page that look like they might work as well. It's just that my 89 has the velcro on the mats and they don't move at all. I looked for the ACC mats and the ones I found appear to have the same rubber t*ts on the back. I guess if I can't find somebody at Carlisle that sells them, they don't exist anymore. Then I'm off to Home Depot for the velcro.

Try www.corvettesofhouston.com

That's where I bought my emblem floormats (for a great price! ), the mats have the velcro on the back.

Just sew a velcro strip on the bottom using same colored thread as the carpet.

velcro/thread = $5
New mats = a lot more.
