[QUOTE This is a foil faced self sticking material. I decided against using this after talking with the tech people that were not sure if it would be a good appliction for the foot box areas that were verticle. The heat may not allow it to stick as good as it should. ][/quote]
I have used Dynomat and Summit brand peal and stick sound / heat / insulation on more than a couple of cars. It will stick on a firewall and not turn loose after years on the road. Good product. I had to remove a lot of it on my GT 40. It's sticks! Not easy to remove and you don't save much when you do remove it.
Go easy on the glue. You can glue just spots and the edges. Last week I pulled the carpet out of a 23 year old kit car trunk to cut a trap door for a sending unit. They use a little glue around the edges and it was easy to remove the pad and carpet without destroying them. Remember New car don't glue their carpet in. Just screws and push pin in a few places.
Glue the edges and it will stay in place.
I use heavy paper to make templates before I cut the carpet. It easy to cut excess or add tape where you cut to short.
You can lay the templates on the carpet in a way to minimize waste. Use soap stone or something that will wipe off. Don't use a Sharpie or you will have to cut or hide your Sharpie lines. They don't wipe off. Lesson learned on the first carpet job.
Enjoy, it can be fun.
