What should I do, the Velcro straps will not stick to my trunk carpet?

Some vehicle makes like Nissan, Toyota and Lexus have rear carpet mats that must be lifted. The Velcro will not stick to these mats, but will stick to the carpet beneath.


The Velcro on the straps ends may not stick to all carpet types. If this happens you can use the two extra Velcro tabs provided. The extra sticky tabs will not stick to carpet - so find a smooth, hard surface.
