eicarsto Member 31 Member For: 15y 11m 8d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 16/07/09 06:52 AM Share Posted 16/07/09 06:52 AM I hope I am not the only one that has this issue......but the mats do not stay where they are supposed too. They are "held" in using a needle type attachment that is basically crap. The other day I gave the car a squirt and the Mat actually pinned the accel flat to the floor..I crapped myself and only managed to pull the car up once I realised what was causing the problem. I havent contacted Ford yet, but was interested to see if anyone else has had similar problems.I now have the mat in the boot as the last 3 attempts to secure it in place has been a waste of time as the bloody thing always comes loose.$300 well spent!Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/59681-my-fpv-floor-mats-are-dangerous/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 16/07/09 07:59 AM Share Posted 16/07/09 07:59 AM My FG mats stay put pretty good and I dont have them pinned down. I read someone else had a problem with slipping mats and I think they ended up having BA/BF mats and not new ones.

I havnt tried it yet but have you tried velcro?
