This is misleading. You can't just buy the door panel as if one piece. It is many pieces. The window section (upper) is over $300. Then there's the lower section which is two pieces: The back pad, and the "pocket assembly" which is the plastic portion that breaks on the SCs.

All of which are expensive as $#@*(. Probably looking at over $1000 per door in reality.

Just get it reupholstered at any car upholstery shop. This is what they do everyday. It's cheap, and it works if they are good.

When I asked for black inside door panels, the Parts guy told me it was around $600 for the whole "shabang"...hmm....maybe I'll have to ask again

best bet and BTW cheapest......start searching the junk yards. I am seeing quite a few SC's these days in the Houston junk yards. Several years ago you hardly ever saw any!

I am always checking bone yards for SC parts in mint shape...
Door panels that are in better shape than the ones i got are hard to find...
I will probably reupholster them to match some interior upgrades..lol
