Hey all,
I finally got some genuine XR mats for my AU, but now I have an issue I didn't expect. I can clip the mats on the driver side in fine - but when it comes to putting on the passenger one there's no hole for the screw clips! Are there meant to be holes already, or am I supposed to punch some through? I looked but I can't feel any obvious holes and I don't want to rip holes in my floor unless it what I'm supposed to be doing.... Anyone know the answer? :

I think the screws go into insulaton under the carpet (accessed by removing the scuff plates, kicker panels and lifting the carpet). I need to see about fixing mine this way, unless anyone has any better ideas?

Axle-F we don't have holes or clips for the pax side carpet mat. Just another cost cutting measure post EL. *mongrels*

Aii thanks for the answers.
I don't like the mat moving about as it's pretty slippery but also dirt just goes straight under it and gets more rubbed in! I think I'll just punch a small set of holes and clip them in myself
