Who sells the plastic barrier sheets that go between the door panels and the metal door? I checked JBG and did not see them. Searching here yielded nothing.

I would use a garbage bag cut open...just make sure it's the thicker "contractor" type. That way you can get it to stretch over the armrest mount.

garbage back is too thin, get a roll of plastic sheeting (a 10x25ft 6mil at lowes is $23) its used as a vapor barrier in construction, same intention as in a vehicle. Use some 3M strip caulk around the perimeter and a few contact points in the center, then apply the sheeting. the 3m strip caulk doesnt dry up and seals nicely.

I use the wrapping that car bumper covers come in. It is a plastic skin on one side and thin closed cell foam on the other. It is a Vapor barrier and sound barrier in one. I then duct tape it all the way around the edges

Hadn't put it in yet but I'm wanting to use "plastic corrugated cardboard"
like political signs are made from. :) Other outdoor signs are being made
from it too it seems, my wife was given a sheet at a convenience store
by the clerk taking a sign down. She knew I wanted it for "her" Bronco. ;)

Cool, Gak. :)
My plan is to just make the plastic "cardboard" a small L shape.
Going to put some P&S on the plastic after seeing your picture.

Inside...


Anybody on FSB brace their doors besides Butthead?
1/2" square pipe popped riveted to the inside...





...it's -way- more solid than it was but still too floppy. :/
I ain't licked yet. ;)

Yes :toothless


The light green bar is a steel fence post, runs from the top of the door to the bottom. Did that back in the '90s.

The vapor barrier keeps the cold breeze out. Usually you feel it around the door handle when its cold out. I like the idea of using a shower curtain.
