Funny you mention this. Im experimenting with making them for 6le designs. The lower carpet pulls off. The upper panel is a little more work( removing the plastic welds from behind etc.

yeah how did you guys secure the new carpet/leather once you pulled it off? Did you just glue the leather onto that cardboard piece and then glue the cardboard to the door panel?

I'm thinking about changing my carpet (on the door) out for red houndstooth to match the seats...
