Whats better for durability? Raylon weave or Nylon weave?
Does the carpet get screwed down? NPD has a "Carpet Mounting Kit" 013000-1K consisting of 10 screws. I was going to lay it out in the sun first then install it with some spray adhesive in a few areas to help hold it down. Our car had some trash carpet cut and tossed in when we bought it.

I know when I took mine out (actually just pulled it back) I removed screws which appeared to be factory installed. I know there were some in front of the front seat risers.
You may regret gluing down the carpet if it gets wet for any reason, or puked on, or whatever.

I prefer the Nylon weave because the threads look tighter and makes the color of the carpet darker. No need for screws or spray adhesive its just a waist of money. Make sure you wait for a warm day for your install.
Make sure to take some extra time and lay down some sound deadener with the carpet out.
I ordered mine from NPD.
I know its black, but this is a picture right after the carpet install
