Hi,

I thought of buying a new carpet for my vintage Beetle.

I saw this and thought it was pretty reasonable.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/RHD-Premier-Carpet-A-1-Quality-Beetle-1958-1967-dark-grey-Charcoal-/271037975137?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f1b1f4a61

But whats the best way to affix and glue the carpet to the chassis?

I've used weldwood carpet adhesive, seems to stick to anything.
had the same kit in a 68, glue held up well, just have a look at your local bunnings or trade store, they are around the $22 + make for 4 liters
