I just went through this on my 96 when adding an A pillar pod.
I bought .......
Duplicolor HUP112
is too gray(may match the 92/93 crystal blue
Duplicolor HUP 102 was too blue
SEM 15043 was too dark
SEM 15643 was too blue
Colorbond 75 was too dark
I spend about $65 in all these colors, And it was money well spent in order to get the RIGHT blue.
But from Late model restoration it is The CORRECT blue
And BTW it is ROYAL BLUE

I will warn you. NOTHING will hold up on door panels . It will wear off

I agree with DieselBrad. Paint won't stick to interior plastic for the long term. I would sand the panels and clean them very thoroughly with something like denatured alcohol. Then, I would try to use a paint meant specifically for plastic, and, I'd plan on touching it up every couple of years. I painted some plastic flower pots that have been in the sun for years with a plastic-specific paint, they still appear to have all the paint on them. Adhesion and flexibility are the key issues beyond surface preparation.

Sorry, McLeod, I completely missed this!

Thanks everyone. Now I understand.
As far as how long it will last, I painted the map light bezel in my Mustang years ago. It still looks good. Yeah, it's a no-wear item, and it's out of the sun in a seldom used garage kept car. :-) Other than that...
My truck is kept outside, but isn't used much. I don't see an option to painting them. I haven't seen new ones, and they'd probably be mucho dinero, if they existed.

Coverlay does make NEW blue door panels, but they are slightly different than the originals.
You would need to see if that is something you'd be okay with.
And it may not be exact color.....
