Question for you guys who know:

Should the interior vinyl on my '83 300D with Parchment MB Tex interior be loose and "floppy" on the doors (sealed at the edges, but not at all glued in the middle) or should it be glued onto the whole door panel and flush?

Say the word and the 3M trim spray or some carbolene glue goes to work this weekend.


Thanks,

John

Mine has been in the shop for some time now, but I recall the material being loose...looks like it has 'breathability'.

im not sure about 83 but my 85 is tight and it is not stiched down like a 86 so if they are the same it is messed up. i bet if you find a site with a 83 300d you can see a pic of it's door
