02-04-2018, 11:03 AM #24yeah know what u mean mate i may be redoing back to silver bit more of a sleeker look!

jimbob150385 I havent got any pics of when i was doing them but this is how:
1. Undo the screw behind the open/close handle with a posi drive and push cover backwards and out (behind the little flap use a flat head screw driver to pop, Cover can be tight)
2. Undo the screw in the botton of the door handle in the using posi drive
3. Remove tweeter cover (just pulls off)
4. Pop the window switch panel out and disconnect plugs (pop the back and slide backwards)
5. Then pull door card from the bottom all the poppers will extract and lift door card upwards
6. Disconnect light at the bottom of the door card
7. Remove the window seal that is connected to the door card (Has little tabs that are bent to hold in place
8. Then remove the material from the door card and this is then used as a template for the new material u would like to use (cut a little bigger than needed 10mm all round)
9. Use a industrial adhesive spray glue and stick the template to the original material leave to dry for 15 mins approx (This then gives the new look a full sponge feeling if u know what i mean lol)
10. Cut the handle hole into the 2 bits material glued together and trim edges so excactly the same size as orignal material
11. Use adhesive spray now on the door card being careful to to over spray and glue the material back in place leaving enough room so that u can push the edges of material back into the slots around the door card
12. Use a card to push edges down and it will be a snug fit (leave to dry for approx 15 mins)
13. Replace door cards window seal but try to ensure material is under the seal which makes life easier later on
14. Use card to tuck any excess under the window seal to ensure that the material has no loose areas
15. replace door card by pusy hard against the window with the door card and then sliding door card down ensuring that it slots onto the lip of the door
16. Reconnect light at the bottom of door card
17. Push door card to ensure door card clips engage
17. Replace door open/close handle cover and replace screw
18. Replace door bottom door handle screw
19. Replace tweeter cover (push back on)
20. Reconnect window switch paned and reconnect
As the job goes on it becomes easier and alot fast completed mine in 2 hours and looks oem!
Ill get pictures to try and help out 2day soz!
Only just seen this!
thanks for doing it though, may find a spare door card and have a try, want to try with the cloth carbon vinyl i have.

02-04-2018, 01:44 PM #26thx for rep stav advice is make sure the material u r going to use is thick enough so as the glue does not show through and also make sure let it get tacky before sticking looks reall good when all done!
