    I actually tried doing this with deep-dish Huskies topped with the Honda OEM mats.

    Results: driver's mat slid around, since the floor anchor is too short and couldn't take both the deep-dish and OEM mats. Passenger and rear mats fared little better, since the surface of the deep-dish mats were smooth.

    I guess I could use some velcro tapes under the OEM mats to prevent them from sliding around. I'll try it out when I have a bit of time to mess around.

    Bro, I don't recommend using adhesives on mats. Tried it (3M velcro IIRC) and after a week of parking in the sun the adhesive melted and it slid when stepped on. Took a long time before it washed off.

    Thanks for the advice. I was planning on doing it this weekend (I bought 3M velcro strips as well), but not anymore. You just saved me a lot of hassle, thanks again!

    No prob bro. Am trying to think of a better, cheaper solution. For now while it's sunny I'll make do with the free mats.

    I'm thinking maybe I can have the vinyl loop mat sewn on the deep dish mat and then seal the stitching with silicone sealant. Kaso pangit na, mukhang franken mat hehe. It would also be very heavy.

    On my Husky liners, I like to top em w/ Nomad. To keep em still, I clamp em down w/ binder clips nearest the seats & away from the feet.

    I remove the wings. They're black & stealth. On cheaper liners, I'd slice thru the mat on ridges & the Nomad to let 1 side of the binder clip thru both. Way cleaner.

    Interesting, this looks like a great solution!
