carpet trouble...

I stripped out my old carpet, and laid in new fresh carpet from the straight from the box. But how on earth do i get it to lay flush against the floor of the car? Mine just seems to have too many folds and wrinkles. any tips and tricks to make it work?

I would suggest laying it out in the sun for a while to soften the backing a little, then use a steam gun on the wrinkles while installing....
