Default Keeping Floor Mats in place -- no carpet

What are you guys with no carpet doing to keep your floor mats in place?

I recently took the JK down to Florida for a week with no top or doors and my carpet went to hell.....so I yanked it. I'm using the MOPAR slush mats and I love them, but they won't stay put because of the rubber teeth on the bottom.

Thanks.

I kept my factory carpet floor mats and lined the bottom of them with rubber grip shelf liner. I have Husky floor mats that I put down over them. Keeps my mats in place very nicely and protects the tub of the jeep from getting scratched! Hope this helps!

i ran a self tapping screw threw the floormat into the floor. I tryied velcro, but when everything heated up the adhesive wouldnt hold. Even on the industrial stuff. I finally gave up and just put in a screw.

Try cutting the nubs off the bottoms of the mats. If that doesn't work add magnets. I find that heavier mats stay down better on the highway, but yours sound nice so they probably are heavy already. It is probably the nubs.
