I recently had my rear panel out of my 87. The vinyl on the board was shrinking badly. I used my heat gun to warm the vinyl and it came right off. Next I used some good Dap weld wood adheisive and some nice indoor out door carpet from my local yard birds. Here's the kicker. with the holes covered I found out I could use regular door panel clips in the holes of the panel and pop the panel on like a door panel. MUCH nicer to remove in the future, you dont shoot your eye out when those darn fixed buttons shatter into a bizillion pieces trying to remove the panel.

You could still use the clips even if you do not recover the board you will just see the tops of the clips.
