Tunnel cover - vinyl

With all the interior panels finally cut & fitted, I started on the covering. I'm using the stock GBS vinyl covering, it has a cotton/foam backing to give a softer feel. Light ironing on the reverse first to get rid of the creases from packing then upholstery glue & copious clothes pegs to hold it in place.

I didn't see any grain/direction on the pattern, but lined all the panels up on the fabric the same way just in case:

Once that goes off I'll trim/glue the edges and cut out/glue all the holes & add in the handbrake & gear lever gaiters.
