Plastic cab door membrane

[Andy_sheff]

I'm sure I've seen some forsale recently but I can't recall where, any ideas? I've looked on the usual sites and can't see them! Or do people make there own ?

I bought some off ebay a few weeks back. Not fitted yet so can't say if any good but If I recall was only about a fiver

Have you got a link mate ?

Try your local body shop, those guys carry it by the roll and the stuff you use to stick it. I'm sure they would cut you some and it will work out better than the stuff you buy on fleabay

The eBay ones I bought are from julia4944 but there are none showing at the moment. Fit fine.

Remember that the correct membrane has a section the fits inside the door channel at the bottom to guide any water into the door bottom. A plane sheet will allow water to get into the door card at the bottom.

Good advice.

It's easy to make your own since its only sheet plastic - but you have to add the flaps. (That sounds a bit odd).

I'm just not sure what would stick it well!

Contact adhesive or double sided tape both work ok. I haven't tried it but I would think the spray on stuff used for trim would work too.

This might sound a bit strange, but I was told that blue tack works.
I used this on my bus, all you do is roll the blue tack into a long thin sausage then push it onto the door going around all the fixing holes then push the plastic sheet onto it.
Been on for 9 months now.

I used low tack double-sided tape. The low tack means you can remove it more easily if you need to get inside the door for any reason.
I did the flaps like this pic. You may have one big hole and either one or two smaller holes. Then finally the large sheet covering the whole door.

glad i've seen this, as mine never really had any left on when i bought it i would have just stuck a peice all over the front without flapping it into the inside, never even thought of it as a way to guide window water ingress down to the bottom of the door

it makes a lot of sense............ :roll:

Excellent. Ile just cut up a builders rubble sack, I use them for work, from b and q. There black but it doesn't matter

Nicely done Mike

I used butyl tape to stick it.

It's cheap on ebay and the same stuff manufacturers use on modern cars
