Can the fabric on the Lavida's door be replaced?
2 Answers
The fabric on the Lavida's door can be replaced. During regular interior maintenance, it is important not to use interior cleaning agents as they can easily cause the fabric to detach. Function of the door: The door provides access for the driver and passengers, isolates external disturbances, and to some extent mitigates side impacts to protect occupants. Performance of the door: The aesthetics of the car are also related to the design of the door. The quality of the door is mainly reflected in its anti-collision performance, sealing performance, ease of opening and closing, and of course, functional indicators. Anti-collision performance is particularly important because during a side impact, the buffer distance is very short, making it easy to injure occupants inside the vehicle.
Of course, the fabric on the Lavida's door panels can be replaced! As someone who frequently works with cars, I've personally helped friends with this issue. The door panel fabric is usually secured with clips and tends to wear out or get dirty over time. The steps are: first pry open the door panel clips, remove the old fabric, then install new material—either OEM-style fabric or upgraded faux leather. Be sure to choose fabric with appropriate thickness, otherwise it may affect door panel installation and sealing. For DIYers, online video tutorials are available, and materials cost just tens of yuan, but beginners often break clips, so I recommend having it done at professional auto detailing shops or 4S stores for 200–500 RMB to ensure neat results. For daily cleaning, use soft brushes and pH-neutral cleaners while avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading. This minor upgrade enhances driving comfort and prevents odor buildup.
