Picking up on a project that didn't get finished in 2013, getting the stereo installed. Tom gave me some motivation!!
I had put the speakers in the door panels but due to water issues I decided to move them to the kick plates. I had to replace the existing fabric once I had cut the holes out and they came out okay. I got the stereo hooked and rear speakers are on the way.

I had to recut new door panels and used the same product I used on the headliner and covered them with burlap. Again this was not a fun process but I got them finished. Glad I decided to do this as the door panels that were on the bus were already showing mold issues since I had used a wood based panel. The new panel look like PVC material based.

I read this on the Samba and created an interior liner that goes into the door cavity as well as the standard vapor barrier. Hope it works since doing window scrapers is on the list any time soon.
"A lot of people seem to think that these scrapers have something to do with keeping the water out. They don't. They are primarily devoted to reducing wind noise. Next time you hose off the car, look at how the water actually cascades down the glass and neatly disappears into the door.
If you have replaced your outer scraper desperately hoping to stop that water that keeps leaking into the door and dripping out the air extractor vents and puddling behind the seats every time it rains, your new outer scrapers will not cure the problem.
The problem is cured by a correctly installed vapor barrier. The later air-extractor buses have a two piece vapor barrier with the second piece serving as a door-long flap that folds over the back side of the extractor. Use nothing less than a 4 mil piece of plastic." this link shows a picture.
