ABSTRACT:
A floor covering assembly and method for use in an interior compartment of an automotive vehicle includes a floor covering having a sill trim attached thereto. The floor covering assembly is prefabricated, thus it forms a unitary, modular assembly which may be easily installed in the interior of the vehicle in a timely and efficient manner. The floor covering assembly includes a sill trim having a U-shaped channel which accepts a leading edge of the floor covering. The floor covering is then wrapped around at least one surface of the sill trim and secured thereto by a suitable adhesive. A staple or other fastening mechanism may also be used to further secure the floor covering to the sill trim.
