A vehicle floor includes a rigid floor structure having a datum location, and a compressible sound attenuating silencer and carpeting both shaped to correspond to the shape of the floor structure. The silencer overlies the floor structure and defines a relief in a section overlying the floor structure's datum location. The carpeting overlies the silencer and has a locator in a section overlying the floor structure's datum location. The locator is accommodated within the silencer's relief and applied against the floor structure's datum location to locate at least some of the carpeting with respect to the floor structure in a direction of the application.
