What is everyone doing once the mat backing dissolves? I tossed mine, I hate to say. Just made a mess everywhere.

I've had the idea of just removing the backing completely, and permanently stitching in the velcro, I'm just unsure if the stitching would show on the front of the mat

Have these OEM black floor mats I kept since 2020, finally about to use them.

Just finished swapping the OEM gray to black. Differences are drastic, I actually like the old "3" better, more of a 00 feel.

Interested in this as well. The thin fabric on the back of the mats disintegrated over time. The mats themselves are in great shape. I hot-glued the Velcro pads but they continue to separate from the mats. While purchasing new mats is an option, I suspect the same issue will arise in due time.

TexaZ3 Have you seen the E60 M version ever in stock?

Not since 2021. It has been a while, but they have re-produced many others, so I'm sure they will get to E60. However, I'm still waiting for a new batch for E39M, and a factory run for E34M, so....

What do the axes represent?

Haven't done it myself, but I seem to recall M539 using a drill brush attachment to scrape the disintegrating backing material off on one of his projects. Not sure what the ideal adhesive to use would be to bond the Velcro pad to the material underneath, I was thinking some kind of epoxy when I got around to give it a shot.

Same yellow contact adhesive they use for leather upholstery - https://www.amazon.com/Barge-All-Purpose-Cement-Rubber-Leather/dp/B00B5XDPLC/ref=pd_lpo_sccl_2/147-1541134-0002268?pd_rd_w=O5CzI&content-id=amzn1.sym.4c8c52db-06f8-4e42-8e56-912796f2ea6c&pf_rd_p=4c8c52db-06f8-4e42-8e56-912796f2ea6c&pf_rd_r=FP22TW5FYD946N8KPKN5&pd_rd_wg =lDcCl&pd_rd_r=7db3c5f7-7431-45b9-97e7-ab57753e719a&pd_rd_i=B00B5XDPLC&psc=1

Technically speaking, that's contact adhesive. It just happens you can use it on rubber, but it is not rubber cement, which is something different.

Thanks, corrected that in the post. I was just going off the label.
