Yeah, the carpet just flops over the "holes", but they're not just holes anymore. They are boxes. Great for stowing tools, extra oil, etc. I suppose something heavy right over the hole/box, might dep

I've had the same experience with Water Wetter, no improvement. Maybe this is because my brand of antifreeze already has "wetter" in it. Perhaps it helps when you're using straight water. BTW, don't
