subframe connector install question

I have some SFC's like that too but I have not installed mine yet. I do plan to pull up my carpet and keep an eye on things with a squirt bottle handy. Others say they did not start a fire and not to worry. Me, I afraid of fire anyway, so your mileage may vary, as they say.

The subframes are pretty far away from your interior and the carpeting is fire resistant. They'll smoke significantly before actually going up. There is really minimal welding involved with the SFC install. A good welder is going to do a lot of area prep to get it to bare metal, tack the key places and run 1" or so stitch welds, moving constantly. There really isn't enough time or proximity to build up enough heat to go through the subframes, into the floorboards, and heat up the carpet to the point where it will catch fire.

It doesn't hurt to have a second person watching the carpets with fire extinguisher handy, though.

Beautiful car! FYI the only subframes that I could find that are made for verts were MM's, the others took some modifying to fit.
