Door Panel Fabric Posted by RS [Email] (#15) [Profile/Gallery] (more from RS) on Tue, 8 Jan 2002 08:47:11 In Reply to: Thanks for the tip. This BB is great. "Quicksilver", Dan L, Mon, 7 Jan 2002 21:41:14 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The fabric for the door panels is a problem. I talked with John of Saabsavior at the SOC last summer and he says that the fabric is not available anymore.
The door panel fabric is heavier and more durable than the headliner fabric.
The foam in the door panels of my SPG has basically turned to powder. I plan on gently peeling the old fabric off, using leftover headliner fabric to replace the deteriorated foam, and gluing the old fabric back on.
Other people have done nice work with leather/naugahyde, upholstry fabric (it's a loooong search - when my wife drags me to one of those places, my eyes roll up and I go off into the netherworld :-), and some guys have done some really nice rosewood work for replacing the panels.
