Default Door vapor barrier

Where can I buy a new door vapor barrier? Mine got all ripped up removing it to replace my window regulator? I am still waiting on the reg to arrive, windows held with clamps on the track for now

If you're just talking about the sheet of material between the door panel and door, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Take a plastic sheet, cut out the hole for the window crank and tape it up. I don't think it has to be any "special" material.

Are you talking about the plastic layer over the inside of the door when you pull off the door panel. I just taped mine back together with packaging tape. Also when I pulled the other door apart there was already tape on there and it had lasted pretty well. I dont think it would be that difficult to just cut one out of the drop cloth plastic stuff. just my .02

If you're really concerned about it and it's a 2 door, I found this http://www.parts123.com/parts123/yb....P52.00~~~~~~~F .

Yup that is the one, I will try tape I have that nice metal duct tape for HVAC ducts, that should do it, and save me a ton of money I am sure.

Thanks!

I would just go buy some plastic sheeting at a hardware store. The kind you use as a drop-cloth for painting, hell, for that matter, maybe use a heavy duty trash bag, and use weatherstrip glue to secure it. Done it before on previous cars and works great.

Oops... Someone beat me to it.
