I have the Mopar mats. They hover a good bit of the time but they've never tried to leave me.

I have similar mats. I tuck the front tabs of the mats (the ones that border the front seat's rear mounts) into the slits in the carpet. I pinch the sides of the mat under the vertical plastic on the B pillars. I drive doorless on the highway regularly and haven't lost a mat yet.

I saw a post in here that someone used bungee cord and wrapped it around the rear bolts of the front seats in under the supports of the rear seats. Not doing a good job explaining, but it sorta made sense. Try and search for it.

This is the easiest way to go. You can go to Harbor freight and get a cheap zip tie kit. Or tjey have colored zip ties

Doors off = elements in the carpeting = all kinds of nasty molds. Ditch the carpets.
