Door card foam

Yep, that was how I did it. Foam stuck to the door card, trimmed to size and 
then the cover glued to the foam and to the back of the card.
I used spray mount on the foam so not to risk the impact adhesive melting 
the foam. Don't know it that would have happened but didn't want to chance 
it.

So you glued the foam to the door card first and then glued the vinyl to the 
foam?

I used 3mm foam fixed with 3M spray mount to the door card and cover (mine 
was a mixture of vinyl and cloth) then impact adhesive to fix the cover to 
the edges and back of the door card.
