kickpanel air vent doors.
Does any one make these? I would like to get a some in really good shape as mine are quite nasty! The rubber seal is really brittle and cracked. I cleanded out the vents and took off the doors( That took a while ) and would like to put some back on that is better condition.

No one makes the doors new but the seals are replaceable and you can usually clean the doors up and repaint.

i pulled mine...sanded off the rust, primered and paints ....
you can buy the oval rubber seals through many companies (lmc, chevyduty) ...then drill out the small rivets .... i replaced the rivets with small nuts and bolts ... in case i tear a seal and need to take it apart again

I bought some cheapo drill bits from the Dollar tree. Not worth a crap. I break the bits so easlily that I thought I would buy two or three sets. They won't even drill into the rivet.
