Carpet fasteners - sources & other

[acat2002]

Where is the best place to buy the correct carpet fastener snaps (male and female parts)?

What type of adhesive spray have others here used for the installation of new carpet. Specifically over different types of surfaces such as Dynamat/Dynaliner, painted surfaces etc?

Is there any place where adhesive spray should not be used?
In fact if anyone knows the exact method used from the factory, that would be great.

I'm not the one to answer your question, but this " project " redoing Carpet.. is something that should be added to our Tech Info...

Hope im not stepping on anyone toes..

+1 coupeking. Quick, friendly, cheap, just right. Bought a set of fasteners for my E3 over ebay from him.

thanks guys!......and bert even posted a link!, what more could I ask for.....hmm, maybe somebody will pay for them too :lol: Oh wait, look at the price, you mean there is actually a piece of coupe hardware priced within reason? too good to be true.

Not that you haven't helped enough already, but what about part 2 to the question regarding adhesive? any thoughts?

The clips from coupeking are one thing, but what about the other half: the posts that screw into the floor that those clip onto? They're NLA, but anybody got another source for something similar?
