Thanks!

What I might do is see if I can cut the carpet off and pre drill holes for
my screws then stick back down. If not, I might just screw over the carpet.
Ugly it may be but at least I have a strong box that wont fall apart.

Thanks again

Jim

Think of something like black japaned screws, they won't look so bad
againsta dark carpetted box. and if you went for something like dome
headed ones, and used them evenly, it might look like they were supposed
to be there.
