Re: tweed door panels?
I did my whole interior of my truck with a grey tweed. That includes the door panels, arm rests, the cab back panel (jut below the window), the overhead liner, and the bottom part of the dash. I don't remember the yardage, but the material is all glued on with an upholstery glue. If that is not available, the contact cement that you can purchase in a hardware store will suffice, quite well. I used a paint gun that I purchased from Walmart (canister design) and backed off on the nozzle to get a heavy streaming effect. Spray both sides and apply the material. If you want to put a design under the material, get a cellular foam material and cut out the desingn and apply to the door. Spray glue over it and put material down and use a tool like an aluminum screen roller to get the material to follow the designs. I did my doors in a flame design.
