I have mounted a number of slides and made them removable.
1) Remove the carpet.
2) Weld 8mm metric exhaust nuts 15mm long onto 50mm x 3mm flat bar in corresponding positions of the slides holes.
3) Bolt to the slide and position the slide in place.
4) Make sure of brake lines and fuel tanks and drill and bolt the flat bar to the floor.
5) Remove the slide and cut holes in the carpet 25x25 in the position of the welded nuts.
6) Replace the carpet and use 25x25 plastic blanking grommets to close the holes in the carpet.
When you need the slide just pull the grommets out and bolt the slide in place.
This leaves the carpet smooth and open.
No bits of wood in the back.
Regards Derek.
