This is definitely the best way to cover the doors. On other channels they use panelling for doors too but doing it your way is, to my way of thinking, far better and more practical. Lighter and simpler. Also it looks much better; more like a professional job.

Cracking job Mel. A work of arse ... err art. Butt I must add you may need to cover the gap between the two halves. It'll prevent smelly exhaust gases leaking through the bottom gap. There, I think I have covered as many double entendres as I can :o) My missus said the back door looks much better after covering.

Make sure you give the auto carpet a good hoover, you will find millions of fibres floating around after cutting. Not sure you can get fire resistant carpet as it looks like polypropylene plastic. Don't cut right into corners, the carpet will stretch quite a bit.

@louisjantzen7141
@louisjantzen7141 4 года назад
Dumb question (as usual), but doesn't the original panel have the fixing holes or plastic snap-grommets to use as a guide to mark the new panel? That way you could mark the carpet with pinpoints to assure proper placement of the new screws. 🤔
@fraserhardmetal7143
@fraserhardmetal7143 4 года назад
There are plenty of holes available in vans already - if you source the proprietary clips , there is no reason to drill unnecessary holes into the vehicle. If all else fails, industrial strength velcro is adequate for these trim panels. Depends to what level of installation you require - total bodge , bodge , that'll do , lovelly, smashing , oh dear. Keep telling people to do the research; manufacturers publish an upfitters guide. Get one and study it. This is a vehicle, not a garden shed - I just despair sometimes.
