Jeff A3 3.2

Here is my question, I recently was given a pair of center console storage nets and I was thinking of mounting them both in the back seat on the floor riser that supports the seat. Basicly they would be at the heals of the rear seat passengers. I know its not super useful but I though it would look cool and hold a map or something since my tiny glove box is crammed full of the owner manual and important papers.

can I drill a self tapper into that carpet/floor material or do i run the risk of piercing through the material and opening up the cabin to the drivetrain and elements?

Thanks for your help.

rivets, but I wouldn't do it.

why not?

to black, I re riveted it on, and thought the rivets were less than totally secure. going thru the carpeting into the tunnel, I'd be wary of getting a strong hold, then, if you decide they look strange, you have many holes in the tunnel. just think it would be a little mickey mouse. but thats just imho.

agreed. thinking of glue like the floor mat retainers . Y or N?

I've been under my A3, but I'd fear hitting a gas line, brake line etc. If I couldn't get into the metal, I'd wonder if it would ever be secure?

Hooks? Safety Pins? Velcro? Straps from under seat?

velcro.or, connect one to the other and loop over the hump
