Does anyone sell map pockets?
I need new map pockets but the only thing I can find are the fiberglass ones I need the carpeted kind. I haven't had any luck finding them new. Thanks!

Seems like they should be real easy to fabricate yourself. Just make a pattern using the existing ones out of real stiff cardboard. Dont forget to include spots for the panel clips. On the front of it attach a carpet pocket of the same shape. Run a strip of elastic banding throught the top of the carpet pocket and staple it to the back of the cardboard panel. the hardest part would be routing out hole of the right shape in the back for the panel clips, but a dremenl would easily take care of that problem. If you have the original, jsut take a careful look how they are constructed. It's really not too complicated. should cost you $30 or less to fabricate.

Well NPD and LMC don't have the carpeted ones. I need them in grey.

Oh, yeah mine are not carpeted either. I do know where I can get some gray ones though I'll see what I can get the carpeted ones for.

What year is the vehicle?
1980-1984: Plastic moulded map pockets.
1985-1986: Soft vinyl map pockets.
The 1980-1984: Plastic moulded ones without carpet (Custom or base model with the convenience group) are the same as the ones with the carpet, (Higher trim option).
You will just need to take the carpet off the old ones and glue it to the newer ones.
Aftermarket companies do not sell the map pockets with carpet attached.
