Good to hear they finally made it. As I've said many times, their panels are the best ones going, but man do they suck at running a business.

Happy to hear you finally got your door panels

I wouldn’t get anything from LMC, Classic Parts or Classic Industries when it comes to Interior parts. They are way off on the colors. In fact, these places only have 1 generic color for the Reds, Blues, Tans and gray. And quite frankly none of these match our interior colors. We have numerous shades of all these colors throughout the years.

My dash pad from LMC is the same exact blue you are showing for the 81-87. I haven't picked up additional interior pieces yet, but I'm very happy with the dash pad quality. I was going to order from USA1, but heard too many bad experiences.

You’ll figure it out when it comes to the colors. You’ll end up with a bunch a different shades, and none match with our interiors.
All the dash pads from LMC that I have see, end up looking like a rollercoaster, they warp like crazy.

Your comment Rings the Truth.

I am not a Fan or Patron of LMC anymore.

Here’s a perfect example of LMC colors. Talk about clashing, lol. This one “generic” red that LMC offers will not match any of the 5 shades of reds that our interiors have. And that’s going to be the same with the Blue, Tan and gray.
Just trying to help people not waste their money, and finding out the hard way. After all I did this myself, wasted money on that LMC crap.
As far as those dashes from LMC. I have seen numerous of those that now look like rollercoasters. They warp badly.

My understanding is the vinyl with steel reinforcement dash that LMC sells is the same dash USA1 sells. They both come from Dashes Direct with the only exception being USA1 dyes it & marks it up another $130 & you get to wait 12-16 months.

Exactly what I have read as well. I'm fortunate that I live within driving distance of LMC. I open parts boxes to inspect the parts before I walk out. I've had great luck with LMC parts so far, so I will continue to take my chances I guess since they are "local" for me.

For the deluxe USA 1 door panels that are dyed how well does the dye holdup to use?

My door panels are from 2018. Still look great. This picture is from last summer
