Ripped interior

jerymon · 09-07-2001, 12:16 AM

Does anyone know of anything that can be used to fix a small rip in the material on the door panel?

I have a tiny tear in the upper part of the door panel of my new WRX

. I know it's not leather, vinyl I guess is what it is. I was woundering if there's anything that can be used to fix it. I'll go to the dealership and ask them but I thought I might be able to find something that may be inexpensive but effective.

Thanks

I have seen kits for sale in auto parts stores that are made for vinyl seat repair. They usually have several different sized patches...color sticks...(which resemble crayons) and a sort of branding iron looking thing. I'm not sure how well these kits work, but it's worth taking a peek I suppose...
