    Door Cards - Magnets or Velcro Options?

    I want to get rid of those horrendous factory door card clips which butcher up the backing board and I'm reading that there's a couple of options...

    1. Fit magnets to my door cards, but does anyone experience with doing this and also have a detailed set of instructions?

    2. Fit the automotive 3M Velcro strips, but does anyone experience with doing this and also have a detailed set of instructions?

    Thanks

    Machaman did a writeup on the magnets. Do a search with his name and Magnets.

    If this forum can't fix it, it isn't broke.

    Toploader - I copied, in a Word document, the use of magnets to hold the door cards that "Rufus68" posted back in 2020.  
    Send me a PM with your email address and I'll forward to you.

     Any chance you could copy/paste the contents of that Word doc into a post right here? Just pulled and reinstalled my DS door card and this is timely info. Please?

    BroPaiul - I had copied that post, with the photos, into a Word doc that is 9 pages long.  I do not know how to post it on these site.  It was originally posted by "Rufus 68", back in October of 2020. 
    PM me your email address and I'll forward to you ... or anyone else.

    I want to install a carbon fiber door cards and the seller has a nice bolt on set up.  Fiberworx I think that's the name.

    I created a thread on my work back in 2020 on VMF.  Maybe it will provide a few ideas.
