any high adhesive low seepage upholstery glue will do the trick, available all over Egay

i want to do this, is it hard to do as i may have a go myself

I did it in an old golf, was really easy, Just make damn sure you get decent quality glue or the sun will melt it on the headlining and it'll be down before you know it

bit tougher with acoustic carpet given its thickness (tho by no means difficult or impossible) but do'able.

 

Id personally suggest a felt type cloth for doorcards as it has more stretch and flexibility which is beneficial when it comes to curvy surfaces.

i agree you do need thinner stuff , i used bass carpet on my doors and its just to thick to make curves with etc around the edges and dont go on that nicely , use thinner stuff

maybe this will help,

 

faux leather (available in limited colours and can be awkward around multiple curves)

felt fabric (readily available in multiple colours, cheap, flexible enough to cope with curves)

Alcantara (more expensive option, very much like felt to use, limited colours, harder wearing than felt)
