Frank, after coffee, it's off to the cold garage to look for the holes. 
If you find additional holes, let me know.

BTW, I ordered snaps from Rick, and I believe there were 16 snaps, so
there may be more holes.  Don't have Rick's catalog with me as it is in
the cold garage.

Are the holes on the tunnel for the carpet that goes over the tunnel, or
for the pieces that lay on the floor?

I started to lay out the carpet yesterday, and Boy what a clash of
colors.  My Tiger was originally Carnival Red, and the new carpet is the
red carpet, with black vinyl for the rest of the interior.  The car is
now Viper Red, and the 2 reds look terrible together.  

The paint is red red, and the carpet is more of a maroon red. So I will
go with a black color carpet, which I though I ordered anyway, but that
was 2 years ago and the memory fades.

Franks are you going to just snap your carpet to the floor, or are you
going to glue a portion, such as the trans tunnel.

I am going to use a insulation in addition to what comes with the
carpet.  The insulation is the kind that has alum layers, which are used
to reflect the heat, with the insulation portion for heat and sound
insulation.  This will be glued to the floor with the alum side down,
and the carpet over the additional insulation.

If anyone has had experiences with this, one way or the other, I would
appreciate your advise.

Thanks Frank.

Larry
