Ezek I am going to be making door panels next winter if you can wait that long. If you like the look of them we can just build more for your truck. I need things to do in the garage next winter, and I will be building patterns for the interior. I have a friend that has an uplostery sewing machine and I am going to try and build the head liner also, but I'm not sure how well that will work out. Something to think about if your interested. :lol:

just make your own. It's easier than you think. I made mine in a little more than an hour. Alum ones are easy too... all you need is the metal and a big piece of card board, jig saw and a file.

Get poster paper, tape or glue them together, put it up against the door and use a screen tool to make an indentation in the paper. Do the top first, cut it and tape it into place. Then do the window crank and the sides and bottom and the holes for the armrest. Transfer it to aluminum, or 1/8 Masonite, or whatever. You have to be careful and work slow. Do the same on the other side with a left handed screwdriver and skyhook, or just flip it over for the other door.
