Michael,
Not really, I am speaking of the ones that are pre formed to fit the
curves of the car's insides.  You will have the option of installing the
snaps or (as I did) leave them off.  The molded ones are much easier to
fit and even without the snaps stay in place pretty well.  I used some
good old 3-M upholstery adhesive to tack it down in places that will not
have to be taken up for service.
