Pro Tech Tips for Installation

Prep the Floor Pans: Before laying down your new carpet, ensure the floor pans are stripped of all old adhesive, debris, and any surface rust. Cleaning the metal thoroughly and applying a rust-preventative coating will ensure the best bond for your adhesive and protect your chassis for years to come.

Let the Material Relax: Carpet kits are often tightly packed for shipping. Remove the pieces from the box and lay them out flat in a warm room or under direct sunlight for about an hour before installation. This allows the backing to soften and the creases to disappear, making the carpet much easier to mold to the contours of your Beetle's floor.

Test Fit Before Gluing: Always dry-fit every piece of the 7-piece kit before applying any adhesive. Use masking tape to temporarily hold pieces in place to ensure everything aligns with the heater vents and footrest. Once you are satisfied with the positioning, apply a high-quality spray adhesive to both the carpet backing and the floor surface for a permanent, professional-grade hold.
