Indys10 · 06-26-2008, 08:04 PM

I am about to order the tweed to do the upper part of my doorpanels and i have a couple questions.

What is the best way to remove and reatach the upper part that i will be tweeding?

Should i order the tweed with the foam backing or not?

Thanks in advance

Dont you like how its stitched to the panel? lol

well.. when i did mine, i just removed the piece that is fabric'd. i think i just poped the plastic 'welds'. then i tweeded it and when i reinstalled it, i just drilled out some plug holes in the door panel, put em together and hot glued my life away...never had a problem and looks SIC

PunkDime99: did you take off the old fabric before you put the new tweed on?

Indys10 · 07-07-2008, 11:26 PM

any other ways or techniques of reataching the upper pannel after you tweed it?

you can get a plastic welder or use a soldering iron to melt it back together. i would use this method just in case i need to take it off again. adhesive might make that difficult.

Indys10 · 07-08-2008, 04:30 PM

plastic welder? where can i get one?

Indys10 · 07-13-2008, 10:43 PM

pop rivets it is i guess

blazed00 · 07-13-2008, 11:03 PM

yea u have to cut all the rivets off, there plastic rivets, melted on. i used a die sander and grinder to hit up the rivets

Indys10 · 07-31-2008, 01:20 AM
