re-carpeting car question

[Mr. Spock]

I tore out all my old carpet because it was wet/nasty/ and just nasty. The car was in storage for a while so. . mold. should I use glue ( and if so what kind) or screws to hold the new carpet in?

[bobrules]

I thought all the carpet was just "lay in". It is held in place by interior trim and screwed down on the perimeter.

yes, all the carpet is just 'laid in.' it's held down by the plastic trim all around the perimeter. the plastic trim itself is held in place with screws. you don't need to screw or glue the carpet itself.
