The door and headliner is just fabric, that Abby can supply, that you cut to fit and use spray adhesive (like others have said) to put it on. She no longer makes the upper interior panels. Fabric covered doors with McMaster door seals is not quite as easy as the Vans seals. You would need to hold the fabric off the perimeter edge so seals to the painted fiberglass. Then you have to provide some sort of finished edge on the fabric. On 11/19/2018 9:29 PM, whodja wrote: > > Ive seen a few photos of doors with a fabric interior lining.

Easy to reach in front of the seat. You will have difficulty if you reverse the seats to put the handle next to the tunnel, because the lever to tilt the seat back is also on the outside and nearly impossible to get to if it were next to the tunnel.

If you do not have a center console, it works just fine and they're easier to get to. I started out (2007) with the very early levers similar to the Aerosport levers. They worked great, but were made out of lighter metal than needed and eventually broke. I was going to replace them with similar ones from IflyRV10.com, but the mounting holes were in a different location and I did not want to drill more holes in the seat. They also offered a T-Handle extension that simply raises the T-Handle about 2 or 3 inches higher, so I opted for that. Works great. If I was building today, I'd definitely install the Aerosport levers. Bottom line, no problems and easier access with the T-Handle next to the tunnel, as long as you don't have a center console mounted on the tunnel. -------- David Maib RV-10 #40559 New Smyrna Beach, FL Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=485717#485717 ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 07:11:51 PM PST US From: "Geoff Combs" Subject: RE: RV10-List: Door interior I would recommend just finishing/paint the doors. Dont use a flat paint for this. Flat paint will hold the dirt and stain more then a semi-gloss. Use a nice 2 part paint if possible. Let the finish coat dry about 90% and then if using a spray gun and air compressor turn the air way down 2-5lbs and put a nice spatter/speckle finish coat on. This makes a real nice, very light texture finish and will also clean up very easy. I have had many people ask what I put on my doors, thinking it was fabric, plastic or a vinyl/leather.
