Hello,
=C2=A0I going to install an almost new set of carpets correctly.Jeff Randal=
l in Hanover MA showed me that the receiving snap is screwed to the flooran=
d the carpet "female" is in two parts. Each on opposite sides of the carpet=
. I believe I have that right.What I'm wondering about, is there a tool tha=
t will compress all four tangs at the same time,or do you have to bend each=
 tang individually. (I sure hope there is.)=C2=A0Happy Thanksgiving to all,=

The snaps I have only have one button in the middle to mushroom down with a
mandril and hammer..another tip for a nice carpet installation:  when you
get the kit the bellhousing hump piece is stitched to the drive shaft
tunnel piece, I have found that with that contour the carpet doesn't lay as
flat as it might so I suggest cutting the stitching leaving the  binding on
the bellhousing piece and then putting the driveshaft tunnel piece under
that bellhousing piece, there should be enough material and you might want
to apply a little glue to the tunnel piece to hold it in place until it
really settles in place.
