Have been searching but havent found yet where anyone has sourced some of the contact paper that goes on the interior above rear window trim pieces (the piece that holds the sink light). Mine is all wrinkled and it stretches when trying to peel back. It is either the same or similar to what is on the underside of top bunk boards ( headbanger ) area. Boards and edge moulding are good, but would like to repaper with new.

Use xylene and a good scraper to get rid of all of the old glue. Do it outside with the correct respirator. Go Westy sells the correct cloth backed vinyl. Use contact cement to adhere the new vinyl after ALL of the old glue is gone.
