Map pockets

Does anyone know a place where I can buy new map pockets (lower doors) for my 73 XLT? I have the interior in my daily pretty much buttoned up except the map pockets which are falling apart.

X2 on they are NOT repoped, so either you get a local upholstery guy to make you a set or get John too.

He also makes the upper vinyl overlay. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...or-panels.html

Yes very nice looking, thanks for the pic. Did you already have the mount pin holes or did you have to drill them? And did you mount with screws or body panel Xmas tree push pins?

My XLT already had the holes, but he provided a nice template for drilling holes if you didn't. He already had the push pin/Christmas tree things attached to the new pockets. They were a lot better fit than the ones I had from LMC. Just a light push to get them in and secure the new pockets. Easiest thing I've done on this truck.

Hi John,
Seems like I’m in the same boat as a few others (new to the forum and unable to send a message). Please send me an email at jlraphaelson@gmail.com. I’m looking to get a set of upper inlays and map pockets. Thanks!

Jake
