Oh, yeah, about the insulation..
If you did manage to remove the insulation with the old FRP, you CAN use ANY insulation you like that you can find at any Home center like Lowes/Home Depot.
There is nothing special with the RV door insulation, in fact mine was from a 1980s trailer and only had fiberglass insulation inside.
From plain old Styrofoam to Polyisocyanurate Rigid Foam, any of that CAN be used.

Can get PolyIso from 1/2", 1" and even thicker.
You can also layer it to fill in the max thickness of your door by gluing up different thicknesses.
My door, I used 1/2" PolyIso with a layer of 1/4" FOAMULAR Extruded Polystyrene (XPS)all glued together with paneling adhesive in order to get the max R value and fill the entire door cavity.
