Question about door panels



I've got those door panels on my truck (pic is not my truck though) and they've seen better days.

1. Which color brown is this? I see light, medium, and dark brown options out there.
2. None of the options have the white insert, so is that bought separately or can I remove them from my original door panels?
3. Does anyone make these wrapped in a brown leather?

Thanks!

I don't think you have options on the repop door panels, you either want brown or you don't. they can be colored with vinyl paint if desired.

Nobody reproduces the XLT inserts. you can remove them and install them on the new ones. depending on the year there are several ways they were held on but it can be done .

I have never used these but stumbled on to them a while back, sounds like the come black and you can cover or have them covered in the material of your choice? Not sure if they are for me but might look ok if the panel was cavers one way and the inserts in something else. When i was looking there wasn't much out there other then stock or reproductions of stock door panels. panels

Hey guys, I don't mean to hijack the thread, but it's relevant. Does anyone know where to get the clips for the door panels? I've found the panels at the usual places(LMC, Rockauto,etc) that come with the clips, but not JUST the clips. I have recently found a set of door panels with ALL of the plastic mounts on the back intact (I know, hard to believe), but they don't have the clips.

You want the OEM metal ones or the plastic X mas tree looking ones? Dorman GM are longer and have a bigger head that goes into the back side of the panel.

Cool. I don't care if they're metal or plastic as long as they hold. I think I'll get the GM ones. I'll google them and see if I can find them over here...Thanks!!

CityTruck, I believe the white - tan insert on your Ranger door panels is nothing more than paint. You just paint that part of the panel the contrasting color. They were not a separate part, like on the XLT or Lariat panels. The chrome trim is separate & would need to be moved to your new door panels.
