blazer carpet hold down parts

So I'm finally pulling the trigger and getting my interior done on my 75 but my question is I'm only doing the front carpet I've seen k5's have a angle strip that goes behind the front seats to hold the carpet down im assuming so the people in the back don't undo the carpet when they get out does anyone know what size that is inch wide 2 inches? I don't wanta get my carpet destroyed a week after I get it done thanx guys

There's a stainless strip that goes across there, I have it on my 75 and I'll look at it tomorrow and take a pic of it. I think it's on the corner edge where the floor raises up.

That's the one I was just going to buy a piece of angled aluminum to go there but wasn't sure about the width funny thing the truck had every single molding on it but that strip even a few moldings that I think came off pre 72 blazers thanx

Here's the stainless bracket, it's got a rounded corner, the way I'm holding it is the way it is installed. The vertical side is about 1.5" and the horizontal part is about 5/8". The curved corner matches the round edge of the floor. The cutout on the end is for the seat belt attachment at the vertical floor.
