Is plastic wielding the same as vinyl wielding with a high temperature hot air gun?

Also useful to have couple plastic welding rods of matching plastic, in case you need to add some extra plastic. You can get some on ebay for couple quid. The type of plastic will be written somewhere on the back side of the door cards, i.e. PP/PE

Make sure all the pop in fixings are all in the released position before you try putting the door back on.
