Super easy to make new ones. I used 1/8th hard board. Traced the original on the board then cut with a jigsaw. then traced a 1" strip to make the step for the weather stripping to lock into place.This is what it ended up looking like after i covered it in the fabric.

BTW for the guys with warped door panels and water getting in the truck................. 6 Mil plastic and butyl tape to cover the interior of the doors like they were orignally covered solves the problem! Water gets into the doors no matter what ! The water gets onto the door panel otherwise and drips on the floor soaking your carpet where your feet go . Must be butyl tape look for it on ebay. If you look carefully the door has chanels to direct the water off the platic at the bottom and without butyl tape its useless. BTW butyl tape is what was originally used black sticky stuff.
i been staring at da pix for like 10 mins and still cant figure out how u fabricated the panels. how did u get it to curve and bend w/out cracking the board? and I know u mentioned the 1/8th hard board but what kind did u use? is there a certain type? thanks.Originally Posted by Fordubishi
