Driver Seat Floor Mat moving around

I got my fit today, and long story short, I put my old Canadian Tires mat on, and i has a hard things and i won't stick, what should I do? should I tear that annoying hard floor mat out? I don't want to pay 150 for the whole things...

how about you punch 2 holes in the universal mat and tie it to the seat rail anchors using a zip tie or some string or strap?

or just get the right mats before you cause an accident.

I use pletiful strips of carpet double side 2' tape; haven't had much luck with velcro.
Stapling just the staple without 'folding' worked too and surprizingly removed and reinserted pretty well.

I had the same problem with my drivers side mat, tried velcro also tape both of which did not work.
Finally used an office clip (that you use to hold a bunch of papers together) and slid it thru the rail under the seat and cliped it onto the mat. Works perfect.

Same problem here. Great idea with the clip. I have been thinking about the rubber mats but I think I'll try the clip first.
