Looking For Quality Interior Parts

I was ready to order all of my interior parts from RodDoors and found out there out of business. Looking for other suppliers with the same quality or better. Thanks Bob

Tough times all over...here's the note on their website:
"Dear friends,
Thank you for your loyal support over the years. we just could not hold on long enough to get thru this rough stretch of road. We are out of business effective 11/04/2009. someone will purchase some of the molds and continue to produce a few of the many products that we use to make. Who that is and when they will be available is unknown even to us at this time."

Hey Bob

I think (for the time being) we are s.o.l. Rod Doors was the only maker of nice stuff that I've ever seen... unless you went to a custom shop to have it done. There are some really nice interior guys around the country... one here in Alabama that has a 2year waiting list... AFA someone that sells the cut to fit panels... s.o.l.


I hate it cause that was my plan also... maybe someone will buy the molds and get it going again... but with the economy as it is it would be a gamble most wouldn't take considering how long RD had been in business and pretty much had a monopoly on the product...

later
john

I bet there's a local upholstery shop that can do a really nice job, and you'll be putting money into your community. I've used a local guy who has been there over 30 yrs, he does great work and gives me choices no mail-order guy would.
