Thread-topic: [Mgs] Adhesive suggestions for carpet and seats
I'm a little late on this but I can add a bit to what Paul says. When I did my
72B, the previous owner had glued in all  the carpet pieces and it was a real
pain to remove. So with that lesson, I installed the new carpet with minimal
glue. I used a 3M spray adhesive, and I lightly sprayed the sill and rear arch
pieces. The heel board attached with screws as I recall. The tunnel piece,
floor pieces, and rear had less need to secure, and definitely not requiring
glue.

Carpet does need gluing on sills, rear arches, and heel board.  (Toe boards?
Can't remember).  It's true floor carpets don't - the rear is retained by the
seat runners, the front by three snaps each side.
