<x-flowed>Do I glue the plastic sheeting or is waterproof duct tape good enough?
If glue is required, which glue is best
Thank you,
Gary Gamboa

The sheeting is just attached to the inside of the door from below the
window opening to the bottom of the door covering the entire access area
(and the same shape as the door panel). The window channel allows water
between the inner an outer door skin, but the plastic covers the opening and
protects the door panel.
I don't know if this helps but it is layered like below:
Outside of door |channel/window |inside door |plastic sheeting |door panel
