Fuzzy strip installation

[Reverend]

Hiya.

I managed to remove the old and worn out fuzzy strips with sharp knife. I just straightened the staples and pull it out. I got the new strips from MSA. Should i glue them back to place or what? I'd rather use some "soft" method to install them rather than just stapling them.

New strips have some removable stripe on the backside, first i tought that there is glue under it but there werent. What is the purpose of this?

I used 1/8" pop rivets on mine. You'll need to drill out both the fuzzy strip and the door panel-burnish the back side with a dremmel if you have one. Spread the fuzz out of the way as much as possible so that the rivet head is buried. I believe I used 5 per door.

By the way, I could not find my rivet gun anywhere, so I bought a new one at Harbor Freight for $4.99 got home, used the gun put it away and found my old one in the same spot. Duh.

It is a rule that you only find missing tools when you are not looking for them.
