I have searched this 9-5 board and the WIS and haven't found this information yet. My 2008 9-5 Sportcombi's driver's side original floor mat carpet is tearing around the fasteners. I ordered new mats from State of Nine and was going to install them when I found I am not sure how to remove the fasteners holding the existing carpet to the pegs. The fastener is circular and about 2" in diameter with a center area that looks like a push rivet, but pressing it with a fair amount of force did not seem to unlatch anything and I am afraid to push too hard and crack the now 13 year old plastic.
Any instructions on how to remove those fasteners?
