Not Ranked
Hi Adam,
I don't have photos of the snap locations and my car is sealed in a bag for the winter so can't get to the car until Spring. Pretty simple, though. I drilled two holes through the carpet into the aluminum panel on the inside of the door sill down low near the floor so the blanket can roll up and tuck between the seat and door sill. I used snaps designed to be screwed into metal/wood and installed the heads of the snaps on the blanket - nothing to it. After six seasons of driving and almost 15,000 miles, I've never used the driver's side blanket and I've never burned myself (yet). I grew up around motorcycles and burned myself so many times I'm pretty aware of hot exhaust so maybe that's why I'm conscious of the pipes.
I've used the passenger side on a number of occasions for passengers that I didn't think could get in and out of the car without touching the pipe. Used it for my wife in the beginning but she said she didn't need it early on. I used to say "watch the pipes" every time we got out of the car, but she says it herself now or cuts me off if I start to say it. She did burn herself once but she was on her cell phone as she got out of the car, so no sympathy.
Kevin
