Passenger side Floor Mat problems

This is a Noob question but my search found nothing.

What do you guys do to prevent the passenger side floor mat from moving around?

Just stick (double stick tape) the back of the 'hook' side of some Velcro tape to the bottom of the mat.

btw: I do the same with my spare tire on the floor of the trunk for those infrequent times I use it (long trips). I used extra strong doublestick to the zippered case of the tire at four points and the Velcro hooks engage the carpeting. Works great even at high lateral G's. :-)

The greater the Velcro area the greater the 'adhesion' of course.

Or a 3" sheetrock screw.

I just forbid passengers. Works great. Floor mat hasn't budged in months.

OK, Enough,
I got another hook like the driver's side has and put a grommet in the mat. Works great.

And where did you get the hook?! I'm desperately looking for a pair...
