factory wire guides are huge and not suitable to go underneath fatmat AND carpet pad.

here is the passenger side with the fatmat installed. it is important to keep the factory wiring harnesses where they ran in case you need to have the vehicle serviced.

i am using a thicker butyl based product on the transmission hump as carpet pad wont go there i am going to double layer stinger roadkill.

will try and do some more tuesday morning.

after reading a LOT of complaints on fat mat i did some more research and decided to let it air out for 2 weeks after that i let it heat up in the sun several times upon installing it the smell is all gone. it seems quit sticky as i did not use soap and water or solvent i used JUST rubbing alcohol.
