The easiest job is the boot liner.
Firstly remove the boot liner and shelf and give them a good clean.
Just lay the carpet colour side down.
Depending weather or not you want a semi permanent finish, you can either cover the liner in glue or you can fold the edges of the carpet over the liner and tape them down, i did both.
Use a rolling pin or something else tubular and heavy to flatten the liner to the carpet.
Its not like stickers where you get air bubbles, once you flatten it, it stays flat.
Once you click your back into place, you will need to trim the edges with the knife or scissors, i folded the inch excess over the liner and glues it down, it look much neater this way.
Depending on colour, it should look like this.
The next easiest is the backs of the seats.
I hope this makes sense.
The top strip should be level with the shelf and the bottom strip, just below the boot line.
The reason for velcro is so you can remove it and put it back, without any trouble.
The parcel shelf is a bit dodgy but should be ok if you have strong glue and a steady hand.
If you want to put speakers in it then you will need some sort of template, to make the holes.
If you buy your speakers new then the usually come with a template in the packaging, if not then you will need to improvise.
Use your jigsaw or dremal tool to cut out the holes.
Cover the top of the shelf in glue, as much as you can get on because it gets soaked up by the shelf and carpet.
Starting from the middle of the shelf, place down the carpet and work outwards, making sure you push it all in the corners.
It is fairly straight forward but may come unstuck in a corner or two, so just keep your eye on it for a while.
Screw in the speakers.
I sprayed mine, to match the car.
To tidy all the edges i used a strip of plastic that goes on the doors, to protect them, bought from halfords, in 2m packs.
You can get in black, red and white.
You can see it in the picture, along with the sticky velcro.
In the end, it should look like this: you can hide the speaker wires behind the carpet on the backs of the seats.
