Floormats slipping

The driver side floormat keeps slipping forward and covering the gas pedal. Any recommendation on better than factory (non-slip) floormats for a 996 C2/40th? I did a quick search but did not find anything that jumped out.

Go to your local hobby shop, get velcro, and deal with it. Piece of cake.

Cut out two large pieces, about 3" cross, and stick them on the carpet (screw down if you need to), then stick to the mat.

Porsche dealers can hook you up with the factory units that pop into the floorboard as well. Easy fix.

Your mats did not come with the round plastic pads that screw into the floor (for hook-loop attch to mat bottom)?.......both my cars came w/that and so have replacement mats since.

I've seen clips that have two needles that push into your carpet against the pull of the mat, and them the mats clip to them.

Saw at AutoZone by the body panel screws.
