What's the best adhesive to use for attaching the running board mats? Got some nice ones from Goose and don't want to screw this up. I see all sorts of spray adhesives at Lowes. 3M, Loctite and Gorilla brands. Is spray the best option, or is there a roll-on version? I'd hate to get the glue on the sides, but I suppose I could mask it off. Just curious, thank's

I've also heard of guys using silicone caulk which is pretty much the same things as the weatherstrip. Whatever you use just be sure to clean up the extra that squishes out of the sides.

Thanks for the input guys! But a couple days ago I picked up the Loctite version and yesterday I installed the mats. This stuff worked really well. Kinda tedious work since I obviously didn't want to get any of this adhesive anywhere it's not supposed to go!! I did OK, but in hind-sight this would go smoother with an extra set of hands. Time will tell how well this stuff works. I only sprayed it on the underside of the mats, not both surfaces according to the directions. Regardless it is holding well at this time. All I need to do now is install the hood and front bumper and this project is officially done. I also started it up yesterday for the first time since 2011. Exciting stuff! I hope to post the pictures of this project in the near future, waiting on a rainy day, LOL.
