Best method is to use a cheap air sprayer i/e one of those $20 air guns they have at harbor freight. Give it a nice thorough coat on both sides, let it tack up for about a minute and it will hold and not let go, but be careful and go slow, because its an absolute bitch to pull off if you want to start over again. Use a heat gun too.

Are we talking about the interior door panels here? I have a process that has worked well for me, I am about to compile and post it up in the next week or so.

If that vinyl wrap is wrapping over a gauge pod there, then I suggest cutting contour triangles in the vinyl that need to be smoothed there the gauges will mount and pull the vinyl inwards so it stretches smooth. You can use heat to move the vinyl around on the adhesive and also heat to stretch it a little. If it is textured vinyl, be careful how much heat you apply as it will marr the texture.

The old school HCCA amplifiers were bad to the bone, the system was a modest 1,200 watts RMS. Most bass amplifiers now a days runs that alone. Plus what you are not seeing is the two yellow top batteries and 4 1F capacitors under the amp rack.
