Door panel repair.

Door panels need replacement on my truck. Has anyone used these and if so what were the results? Pricey but they do both doors. Thanks

Absolute TRASH.

Got a set for the '97, they broke before we could even install them. They fit terrible, i pushed and pulled to get it remotely close to lining up. Ended up boxing them back up and picking up a set from the junkyard. The coverlays are sitting in my storage to this day..

Hit the junkyard.. they have no pockets. The carpet on the panel will peel off easy. No hole for the courtesy light or reflectors. Gna make new holes in some places.....for the money i say no..i would rather wrap the broken ones with fleece and fiberglass resin.

Yes I'm same boat as you I need to defiantly replace my drivers side but thinking of doing both. Sourcing junkyard first and hope I come across some nice ones cheap if not I'm gonna buy new.

Mine is 1994 but good luck us know what you find.

Thanks for the input Guy's. My panels are sun baked and have a couple of minor cracks. Do any of you know of someone that restores/repairs door panels? My panels are in really good shape except for cracking and discoloration. Maybe I'll repair and paint what I have. Thanks again.

If, during any of your junkyard scouting trips, you run across a REALLY nice blue XLT driver's side panel, let me know!


No way I'm going to go with that coverlay junk.
