Lioyd thanks for sharing On my vw bus the panels for that you can buy from TMI, if you have extra $1,500.00 sitting around collecting dust. For years now on the VW's everyone makes them thier own (crazy things like putting in a V8 motor) they add thier style and vision. After watching this, I see how I can do that with my bus panels May need to call you buddy about how to do it when the time comes to panel it up on my bus ---you have me thinking about the VW emblem may need to practice on that one or BUSMAN54 ??? in the door panels ; you have some big panels on the buses.

Great video. I have a couple questions. I noticed when you added the second plywood piece; you rolled the edge; but I didn't see where you added any kind of adhesive other than the bottom. Should I assume it is only attached with staples at the bottom and on the back side..?? Also I am curious how you use glue in the spray gun. Does it need to be thinned down or just use it as it comes in the can. Also do you have a video about how to have "holes" in the vinyl for items like armrest or window cranks. Thanks looking forward to a reply. Great video

@RustyGlovebox Жыл бұрын

Don't need to thin the glue , It sprays out easily using the gun. The bottom panel is held on with glue and staples. The bottom has a line of screws across it. You can get a gasket hole punch on Amazon or Ebay to punch hole in the vinyl.

I used a cheap Harbor Freight spray gun cause if it messed up it was no big loss. On air pressure you have to play with pressure and the fan spray you want to get it right, not to hard. The first time I did it I clean it up but the next time I cover the vent and cleaned the tip up and it worked fine the next day. Good luck on your project
