I pulled out the door trims from the woody today and the cardboard backing is not good what do you suggest as a replacement or to firm the original up . They are 850 type trims

Have a look at this stuff, people have used this before and it does the job, scroll down to the Laminated Sheet.

The original upholstery card can be purchased in sheets from upholstery suppliers such as Daleys AMU out at Parramatta.

I've used it a number of times and find it nice enough to use.

I do hope you sealed the back with fibreglass resin or something. Otherwise if/when it gets wet, it will revert to being tree-shaped. :lol:
