Question securing carpet

Hi Boys and girls,

I have cut and shaped my carpet and underlay. I am at the point where I must decide how the carpet will be secured.

In some areas like the rear wall it seems pretty straight forward...glue the carpet on?

Other areas appear more difficult...like the trans tunnel, especially where it widens. The carpet really needs to be held firmly in place. I dont think glue is an option in this area because it has underlay (dont imagine glueing carpet to felt underlay would be effective).

The only idea I've been able to come up with is to drill holes into the trans tunnel and use those Christmas tree caps. Is this a good option? Anybody do it differently? HELP!!
