    So, fabric finally came today, still waiting on the cluster from cBass though I hope it comes tomorrow. So i wanted to start the fabric job tomorrow but I'm a little slow... The forums were down for me earlier
    :foreveralone: so i posted this at TN but i'll post it here cuz you guys are awesome.

    [IMG]
    I got some 3m headliner spray glue as suggested. Was just curious how to take off the piece I want to refabric? Here's a pic, do I have to take off the door panel or does this piece come out with a little effort ? Mack I think you mentioned it's glued in and should pop out? I'm using screwdriver as an example id really use something larger.

    thanks for any help you can give

    i know those pieces come off...ive taken some off at the junk yard but you need to pry it off.....or use a heat gun to soften the glue behind it......OR you can use the credit car method and stuff the end inside the piece itself...

    i think its just regular hot glue...but i might not be sure...

    what i did to do the door panels, i cut the fabric maybe 1 inch more out around the whole piece, sprayed some 3m headliner glue on the panel, applied the fabric over the piece, let it sit for a while to cure, then used a credit card and stuff the extra fabric inside the cracks around the panel. its easy and simple...

    Yep, that's the way to do it. But you can't just pry that fabric piece out like that lol.... if you take the entire door card off, you can see that it's riveted on from the back.

    Ran the code scanner,
    p0300 multiple misfires
    p0304 misfire on cylinder 4
    I took that cover off and to my surprise no sparkplug wires and no distributor? Took cylinder 4 plug out it looks like shit.

    on the way to parts store.

    Well what I said/meant was that the plastic to which the fabric is glued is riveted in.

    The door panel is held on to the car by plastic tabs, not rivets.
