Does anyone know where I can find the map pockets? Ive only found Brothers carries them but I dont want to get bent over on the price. I only need one grey pocket, I mean come on its cardboard and vinyl.

LMC carries them to not sure on cost though? auction sites?

bilfman · 04-17-2014, 11:56 PM

They are expensive from lmc too. Make sure to order the right size, there are two.

Try the wrecking yards. I've been hunting in them lately for parts for myself. I can keep an eye out for you. What year is the truck?

05duramaxhd · 04-18-2014, 07:15 AM

blazer2007 · 04-18-2014, 10:00 AM

toeffer · 04-18-2014, 10:47 AM

Hey toeffer, what do you drive? We live just north of Omaha. I don't see so many squares around town much (though yesterday I did see a two tone grey Suburban staring at me as he passed).

toeffer · 04-18-2014, 01:47 PM

This is my toy, 5.3/4l60e.

twosocks90 · 04-18-2014, 02:32 PM

Nice!

toeffer · 04-18-2014, 02:55 PM

Thanks! Not sure what I want to do, may sell it, may keep it.

SEM graphite vinyl paint matches pretty dang close

toeffer · 04-23-2014, 11:29 PM

The only problem with painting them, is I don't have one. I really dont want to spend 70$ on a set and then have to paint them.

I also need a pull strap.

That's awesome man, I would greatly appreciate it if you can round some up.

Kaysen · 04-24-2014, 07:09 AM

Let me check also. Even if I don't have some that were originally the charcoal I think I remember having some that were blue that I can spray. I'll check this weekend.

**jlmerie** · 04-24-2014, 06:39 PM

Hi Toeffer. I think I have what you are looking for. The pictures show a pair of door map pockets. Both are in really good condition. They are both marked "Charcoal" on the back. In the picture of the back side of the map pockets you may notice the the wording goes one direction on one of the and the other direction on the other. They are both correct. The reason for the difference is I actually had two pairs of these and selected the two best map pockets. I feel sure these are both from the passenger side of the truck they were removed from. It is the driver's side that typically gets all stretched out. I would need $50 plus $5 for priority shipping. I have some of the light gray ones that I would sell for about half that amount. Good Luck

toeffer · 04-25-2014, 12:03 AM

Hmm, well jlmerie if I cant find any at the salvage yard this weekend I'll let you know. I just cant bring myself to pay 50$+ on a couple pieces of cardboard wrapped in vinyl.

I know they are hard to find, but I guess you can call me cheap.
