I'm very close to being ready to install the rear floor carpet in my 35 and am
wondering what would have been used to attach the main carpet to the floor.
I have the original toe kick board piece and the small piece that went below the
bottom cushion but I don't have the piece that would have been on the floor.
The two pieces I have show signs of contact cement on their back sides but
would the main carpet have also been contact cemented down or should there be some type of a hidden carpet socket or exposed button head fastener used in pertinent locations? The 35/36 restoration guide shows the carpet in question
with a couple of button head fasteners. However, I don't know if that's a shot
of an original factory piece or not.
