« on: January 31, 2017 - 02:40:44 AM »
Does anybody have any idea where I could find a set of challenger door plastic vapor barriers? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I still have my originals & plan on making my own, thinking shower curtain liner would work well.

Just go to the hardware store and buy a roll of 3 or 6 mil plastic sheeting.  Then cut it to fit.  Use the rest for paint drop cloth.

I'd make sure its UV resistant.  Other wise, in a couple of years, you just have a mess of plastic crumbles.

If you put the interior door panel on, it will never see UV....
