Steamer would probably be great. And just to clarify, by bottom of the cups/sunken part, I was talking as if the door panel was laying down flat on the workbench. I started with the rear passenger door and worked my way up to the drivers door. Drivers door has a slightly extra complexity because the speaker grills retain the leather, and are secured with melted tabs. I dremeled mine off very carefully, and then melted zip ties on the backside of the tabs to secure them back.C1ph3r wrote: ↑29 Aug 2024, 07:26 Oh my foam is trashed so I’m using what came from redline. And thanks for the tips. I wouldn’t have thought about doing the inside of the cups then the walls as 2 steps to prevent tension. I’m probably going to use my steamer and steam the leather a little to get the shipping wrinkles out.
This is my first time also and I’m doing a rear door first. So I’ll learn from back to front. Hopefully by time I get to the drivers door I’ll have it down
I really should have done a writeup in a thread after the job, but I lost all my pictures that would have broken up the wall of text.
Good luck with this project.
