that is an excellent solution, sort of like getting bubbles out of tinted windows without redoing the entire thing. it would probably help to follow the adhesive with a heat gun.

how would you get the carpet adhesive under the bubble though?

use 3M Trim Adhesive, it's a spray adhesive, attach one of those extention tubes to the nozzle, put through the pin hole and bingo, then can use a heat gun like rotorgasm suggested......

worked for my old 89 735iL's sugging roofline.... (that plus a few well placed staples)
