I didn't glue mine. I cut and formed it to the tub in about 4-6
pieces and then taped those together on top of the heatshield once it
was all laying in the tub. The carpet, seats and everything else will
keep it in place. I used foil covered bubble wrap from Home Depot and
it has been just fine for 13 years. Reduced noise and the heat very
effectively and was a cheap solution that has become a great value
towards making road trips enjoyable.
