I recently had mine re-carpeted by a local shop that does 20-30 boats a year, and when he did the lids, he simply made sure and put plenty of contact cement on both the carpet and lids, and when ready, simply pinched the carpet together right at the corner, and cut it off! No funky angles to cut! Holding up great, as the contact cement is a lot stronger than the carpet backing in the first place... Not saying that the fancy cuts won't work, I just doubt you'll see any difference in the install (other that time involved) either way...</TD></TR></TABLE>

I agree. Just cut 90 degree angles off of each corner and glued it down. Works great and still looks great.
