LMC interior parts

I have been disappointed with LMC and normally stay away but they have some door panel parts that I can't seem find elsewhere. I'm hoping to find feedback or a possible different source on the following parts: replacement door panel pockets, replacement cloth door panel inserts and the door panel trim without door strap. All parts are for the factory door panels.

Re: LMC interior parts

there stuff is ok, i am almost sure that all thier door trim peices are made strictly for "their" reproduction panels, they wont fit stock ones, i think the door panel pockets might work though.

Believe it or not their catalog says the above parts are for factory door panels, kinda suprised me.

Re: LMC interior parts

I used the LMC door trim panels, then stuck my original trim and handle bezels back in them.

Seemed to turn out ok, and dress the door panels up a bit.

Re: LMC interior parts

How's the quality of the interior door panels? And is the black color a gloss or satin finish?

Re: LMC interior parts

If their replacement interior door panels will look better/better alternative than painting my existing original panels, then I guess I'll cough up the $$$.

If anyone has any experience with LMC replacement door panels (good and bad), I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Thanks everyone.

Re: LMC interior parts

Check with Henry at Cheyenne Parts in Oklahoma. He may have some NOS trim parts for various years. I just picked up some NOS trim for the 78-80 door panels from him.

truckandcarparts.com has some NOS door panels listed in their online catalog. Classicparts.com has some NOS trim for the cheyenne panels, if I recall.

Really depends upon the year(s) you are looking for.

Thanks. I need door panels for 81-87 years. I have been very loyal to Classic Parts of America as they sell mostly NOS/OEM parts. I purchased the majority of my suspension parts from CPA (lowering and regular parts) and have been 100 percent satisfied. And they have great technical advisors and free shipping with $300 in purchases.

Re: LMC interior parts

All their door panels are from PALCO industries LMC does not make them we sell the same stuff cause they are the only ones making them. Some fit great and some don't. same part same side etc.
