I'll show you what I have Frank. It's not exactly what you are looking for but it's pretty close.

The first pics has the early style seats. The last two are 77 style seats...

If you can find decent door panels don't worry about the color. Quit a few of them were dyed from the factory. I found a really nice set that was maroon on the front. When I looked at the back, they were blue.

I spent about 30-40 minutes with lacquer thinner and stripped all the old vinyl dye off. No they look like new after a fresh coat of vinyl dye....

I converted mine to power windows. Don't worry if you find manual window panels. They can be made to work. If you can find a complete power window/lock harness with the rubber boots it will make the conversion go faster and look like factory....

Ken ,
Thanks for taking the time to post the pics . The panels in the last picture is what I am looking for . Thanks also for the cleaning and dying info .That will make finding the panels a lot easier since thay dont need to be blue .

if you don't mind me asking, in the blue interior at the top, above the driver seat near the rear window, there's some sort of switch. what is that? i don't have one in my truck.

That would be for the Cargo light . Frank

I p[urchased the door panels for my truck some time back and also go the plastic door handle cups and the chrome trim bezels that surround the cups. I am confused though as to how to install them? The trim rings have four posts that stick out and look like they would sit in grooves on the cups, but do you drill into the panels and then glue them?

I found these on ebay .

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33696

Has anyone used these and how do they compare to the originals ? I would love to find a pair of real nice originals but these look very close and are only around $200 delivered . I bought a pair from another board member and will see what condition they are in when I get them . They might be useable .If not I will use them for parts and might consider a pair of these . Let me know what you guys think . Frank
