SEDAN / FRONT DOOR & REAR DOOR

Please note that due to high interior temperatures, we recommend using Loctite 480 for the best results. Do not use hot glue.

Overview

Sagging door panels and missing tabs are a common issue on aging E36s — especially after interior reupholstery or speaker work. This repair kit is a permanent fix that restores your door cards back to a factory-tight fit using clearly labeled, shape-specific tabs for each model and door type.

Built from carbon fiber-infused polycarbonate, these replacements are strong, heat-resistant, and designed to last decades longer than the brittle factory pieces. Whether you're restoring a Coupe, Sedan, Touring, or Convertible, this kit covers everything you need.

Main Feature

✅ Completely restores broken or missing door card tabs on your E36
✅ Each piece is uniquely shaped and labeled for correct position — no guesswork
✅ Made from heat-resistant carbon fiber-infused polycarbonate
✅ Designed to handle high cabin temps — won’t melt or deform over time
✅ Developed to help your E36 interior last another 30 years

Installation

🛠 Installation is easy — just clean, glue, and press.

  • Loctite 480 or epoxy glue (AB glue) for best long-term hold
  • ❌ Do not use hot glue — it fails under high temperatures

Tab Layout by Model:
Sedan / Touring / Convertible

  • Front Doors: 14 pcs (RA–RJ + 4x TOP)
  • Rear Doors: 12 pcs (Ra–RH + 4x TOP)
  • Right Side = RA / RB / RC...

  • Install in shape order on each side (mirrored for left/right)

Install time per door: ~20–30 minutes (plus adhesive cure time)

Change Instructions

You need to change the instructions. DO NOT USE HOT GLUE! My door panels didn't even last 5 days when I used hot glue. The product itself is okay but I wasted 5 hrs doing the job and broke the repair kit when trying to remove it from the door once it separated from the door panel.

Change Instructions

I followed your instructions and spent 5 hours redoing both door panels. It's only been 3 days and the hot glue you suggested to use has already failed. Hot glue is not an adequate glue for the application. Now I get to spend $1000 on 2 new door panels from FCP Euro to replace these that I just ruined by foliwong your instructions. Heres a link to the door panels that i will have to by due to your instructions. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-door-trim-panel-front-left-0515-521-620-bg-51418178023?ads_cmpid=21608570790&ads_adid=172030790608&ads_matchtype=&ads_network=g&ads_creative=710410055268&utm_term=&ads_targetid=aud-2343638065892:pla-297546631617&utm_campaign=&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&ttv=2&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw-qi_BhBxEiwAkxvbkHnnZHA4K4BzwM-39Jn30Agi2dq9y0LAITxIWGnq2uhYgkFYFh-FTxoC198QAvD_BwE

What!? Did you read the description at all?
'We recommend using strong adhesives for installation such as epoxy or AB glue.'
