interior ppl, need help wiht vinal door pannels.
i have a 93 del sol (**** yea 
) and the vinal on the door pannel where i kinda curves upward (sry no pics) is kinda bubbling if i may say 
. like it has an air pocket. now ive had a couple thoughts. i should get a real fine/thin needle and poke a little whole and smooth out the area which hopfuly would allow any and all air to get the **** out. or suggestion number two would be to recover that whole section in suede (then id do the roof lining & add a suede wheel). any and all feedback would be nice.

This is one VERY common problem on the del sols, i never met someone with a del sol where theres did not have this problem....
Dont poke a hole, that wont do a damn thing but leave a nasty hole there, you cant really get the "air" out, its just from being old i guess the vinyl starts to stretch and come apart from the panel it is wrapped on.
I guess, take it apart, re-wrap it and use some nice spray glue or whatever it is to make the fabric stick instead of coming apart and bubbling...
good luck

That will work perfectly. Just make sure to stretch it well and make it nice and tight and a good amount of glue so it doesnt happen when the weather changes from cold to warm inside the car, if you put to little it will bubble up againa dn come apart.
