So if I never do this you can call me out but I do plan on trying the whole recovering with vinyl thing. Not too many threads on this board about it, but plenty on other cars and you tube. Many failures and a bunch of very average jobs. I've been reading and trying figure out why they failed and do something different. I only have 2 cracks but one is big and everything is brittle. We have a big pad and to hide the crap underneath we will need a good flexible filler and a layer of some sort of foam or fabric. I'm actually thinking heavy duty garden weed block. Same thing as recycled shopping bags. Non woven polypropylene fabric. The bumpier your filler the thicker the padding. If I fail I wasted 100 ish dollars and it could still be sent to abcmoparts. What I'm having issues with is deciding how I'm going to handle speakers as I must have sound and I cant preproduce the center 4X10 holes. Maybe leather punch but it needs to be consistent. Or aftermarket grills. Anyway its better to do it in the summer heat to get maximum stretch. I may practice on something else first. I'll have enough contact cement for a hundred jobs!
High heat resistant contact cement
4way stretch vinyl
some thin-ish foam or fabric
semi rigid calk.RTV
