alternatively, tie them down...
drill or punch a small hole in the floormat (kinda defeats the purpose of slush mats, I know... maybe in a high point on the mat)... use a small carabiner and hook them to something secure in front of them. They may flap a bit... but not fly away

They got about 2" off the floor before I noticed them.I like the carbiner idea. When they have to come out to clean (I know: sin
), that will be easier.Hey, when did I become a JK Freak???

If you have any type of aftermarket rear floor mats...take them out when you go doorless....
One of my Husky Liners mats....decided to take flying lesson's when a gust of cross wind launched it out of the Jeep and just as it happened I looked in my mirrors and a RCMP was following!
He turned his lights on and pulled me over and told me I didn't see that and stated that I need to secure my floor mats or anything that may like to fly!!! Thus I now take the rear mats out now.

Probably would land on their friggin hood.

the tire tread mopar ones stay in there pretty well i lost my stock carpet ones first time i took the jeep doorless on the highway. With the mopar ones just tuck the rubber part under the cup holder area of the center consol and it flaps but doesnt go anywhere.
