    Check your local hardware store, they should have various sheets in different thicknesses. If no go, the web offers everything.

    The typical sheet quantity is too much for a car interior. Look for super HD trash bags, drop cloth (plastic) or other smaller amounts.

    I got some from a fabric store. They had it in a couple of thicknesses on a roll. You could buy as much as you needed.

    I used the contractor size trash bags cut to fit inside the doors on the Ranch Wagon. HRP

    I used the plastic that goes under a vinyl floor . It is provided in a roll works well.

    All the stuff you buy at the big box stores is too thin. It needs to be .010".

    As mentioned you can get many different thicknesses of plastic at the big box store, but does it really matter? All it has to do is provide a moisture barrier, and once it's installed and the inner door panel is in place it's not like it's in danger of being damaged.

    I went to a local furniture store and the manager gave me the plastic sheets that mattress' come in. It was thicker and worked great. And, it was free.
