Yeah, I did use the original piece for a template. Except for the piece that goes above the back bench seat, for that I just measured the area, cut out a piece and screwed it over what was already there. for the front and the long skinny side piece i did the template thing and then tossed the old pieces. Those are pretty much all the pics i have. I am still going to do the piece that goes on the back hatch. corrected link... http://www.geocities.com/kgordee/greenvw

but if it wasn't I would probably go down this road. Did you
just use the old pieces as templates? Do you have pics of the
process?
Thanks,

P.S. I had a problem with the link it is actually:

>Just thought I would share some pictures of my paneling
project. I had done this back when I had my 82 westy and so I
wanted to do it again in my new 83. The hardest part was
installing the new piece of paneling that goes above the
front 2 seats. the original piece is a lot flimsier so it is
easy to fit into the grooves but the stuff i used was a
little stiffer. it is from Home Depot. I thought it turned
out pretty nice and I still have some more areas i would like
to do. This website will occasionally go down so if it isn't
working, try a little later...just scroll down to where it
says "paneling project" and click on the little
picture.http://www.geocities.com/kgordee/greenvw~Gordy
