Re: Door Panels

Anyone who sells ones made by Palco Products like we do. They are the only ones worth purchasing. Still do not fit as good as factory (don't tell palco) but they fit pretty damn good.

Re: Door Panels

Hey mbgmike,

My 74 panel has a turned down lip which aids in installation/mounting and is a provision for a felt window wiper, Does your panels have this provision ?

I bought a set of no names off ebay a couple years back and haven't figured a way to put this wiper on.

Thanks

Yes and the wiper is already mounted on the panel.

Re: Door Panels

The panels I bought from LMC do not fit worth a dang (77 Bonanza). Don't waste your money on them. They are made by Dash Top. The holes for the window cranks were way off and I cracked the passenger side panel becuse it was not cut right. also, the door lock holes were so far off I had to Dremel tool one just to get the locks to work.
