If you look back at my post #4, I said that I installed mine with snaps but you really don't have to secure it. Just stuff it either behind the seat or roll it up and stuff it between the seat and door sill. And, no, you don't need to reinforce the blanket because of the curvature of the door sill. You can see that it stays just fine in the photo in my post.

P.S. The only reason I secured mine is that I installed it during my build when I was done with everything and was just waiting for the engine. I had run out of things to do on the car and, for some reason, just couldn't leave it alone so I did a few "unnecessary" things...
