Sliding Floor mats?

[JVkouki]

I'm pretty sure every car owner has had this problem. Sliding floor mats. What's the best fix for these?
I've tried using regular velcro on the back of the mat to the board but the glue ended up being too weak so the velcro piece wouldn't stick on strong enough. BUT, BMW did it best:
they have a plastic velcro fastener thats strong enough to stay there and easy enough to remove. Is there a way we can use this BMW method on our floor mats? Are there any other successful ways to keep a floor mat from sliding? Any good suggestions?!?

additional adhesive?

Mine don't move. I have hooks mounted under my seat and loops with metal grommets in the mat. That's factory for my car.

safety pins. The bigger kind. works for me.
Or, poke black string (thick enough not to break under foot pressure) through the 2 rear corners of the mat and tie them around the bottom of the seat legs.

Lots of gum.

Lots of gum.

Wouln't that defeat the purpose of a floor mat?

ooh, oohh, Do what the Toyota drivers were doing. Pile on like 8 layers of floor mats. Then, after the "Unintended acceleration", the floor mats (under tramendous G-forces) should slide back to where they were.

Slap a Toyota badge on your car and go in for a free fix. They'll add zip ties.

The original Q45 used backwards-facing metal hooks.


I miss the Q but dislike its high level of maintenance. *sigh*

This is a huge problem in my STi, but is with the gas peddle not the brakes. If I want to to be able to go 100% WOT I have put my mat in the passenger side of the car.
