I used the search function and went through about 15 pages and still didnt find anything.


So, does anyone know how to remove the sun damage ( aka wrinkles ) on the door panels. I CANT STAND IT ! and i really cant find any to buy that dont have it already, I guess its the southern heat.

Anyways if anyone knows how please post here and let everyone know how, I'm sure others would like to know.

The door panels are in two parts:

1. part, cover
2. part, plastic panel with controls etc.

The 1. part is possible to disassemble from the plastic panel, so you could get a door panel with JUST the cover, not the plastic part. You see?

And, the plastic panels are also same whatever the car is LHD or RHD. Did recently a swap to electric windows on my LHD ST. And the donor doors and panels came from a JDM RHD. I just needed to switch the controls.


Bottomline, unmount the door covers from the plastic and send them to a upholstery shop. I'll payed around 400USD for upholstery of two doors, and thats a Norwegian price. (Which is know as a expensive country) The upholstery work were top notch quality, and Im 100% satisfied.
