I'm not sure about EGs, but on my EK sedan, the door panel insert doesn't detach from the door panel itself - its one piece. I just peeled off the existing OEM fabric. I could've done this mod without even removing my door panels from the door.

Here's a couple DIY links that will help get you started:

And for those of you who buy your fabric from Joann Fabric stores, download their app for the iPhone. Their app has either a 40% or 50% off coupon that you can use on a single item. That's a huge savings. I would buy my fabric, use the coupon, leave the store, come back in, buy the spray adhesive and use the coupon again. You'll save a lot of money that way.

Just stumbled on these pre-cut door panel inserts on eBay:

wow, Thats highway robbery, fabric is super cheap, and even a retarded monkey could do this. If anything, them being pre-cut would make it more difficult to line everything up.

Yeah, I'd stay away from those. Just from looking at the pics, the fabric looks kind of cheap/low quality.
