One roll will seal the front doors on most cars or trucks.
Every interior door panel has an arm rest and handle to pull the door closed.
The vapor barrier keeps the odd drip from the window from splashing on the window mechanism and wetting the speakers and other electronics in the door panel but if you are getting enough water to wet the carpet there must be a blocked drain hole.
Allows for some re positioning if needed and held the barrier nicely.
After this picture i also added a flap inside the door to cover my leather pull strap so that it doesn t wick water from outside the vapour barrier towards the inside of the car for speakers cut a speaker sized hole in the vapour barrier to let the sound into the car.
I just re upholstered my door panels and replaced the vapor barrier as well i also used the 3m spray adhesive and it worked fine.
