Kevin Tetz guides you through the step-by-step DIY installation of interior door panels and trim for 1981-1987 Chevy and GMC square-body pickup trucks. This how-to guide is performed with a Chevy C10, but it should help with similar door panel installations on other Chevy, GMC, Ford and Dodge trucks with minor adjustments.
Kevin shows the proper way to remove old Chevy/GMC door panels and trim pieces and goes through the whole process of preparing the new door panels, trim and attachments for installation. These parts are easy to install, so this project should only take a few hours to complete with basic tools. Plus, new door panels from LMC Truck have a factory-like fit so they make your truck interior look brand new, and they also have pre-marked cut lines on the back, so there’s no guesswork when trying to properly reinstall factory accessories like light switches and window switches.

What Color black is that paint, is it ”Chevy Jet Black” or “GM Black”? It doesn’t It say anywhere in the description, or on LMC web site, and I can’t read it on the can in the video. How do we find out which black matches the Black Chevy Door Panels from LMC. There are a LOT of diff colors....

So I have a question for Kevin. I did a steering column swap from a 1975 c10 to a 91 silverado 2wd 1500 fully intact tilt column. I have already shortened and welded the shaft to the column. I am in need of serious help adapting my new shaft bracket, which is on the driver fender well side instead of the driver passenger side. The bracket hits the fender, and I purchased the 73-87 transmission gear linkage set from LMC, I need help installing it. I have no idea what I need to do. Can you send me a video of how I need to adapt it, so I can move forward with my project? I would really appreciate it alot! Thxs! Sarge USAF AD

@enermaxstephens1051 Жыл бұрын

I really like LMC but I wish they'd upgrade their door panels. At this point they're only something like 75% of factory quality. You can tell just by watching this video, their panels don't even have the recess necessary for the fabric insert near the top of the panel. It's just a plastic look-alike thing. For many of us, that's just unacceptable. I use a lot of their other parts but the door panels ain't one of them.

Why dint you install the velour padding by the arm rest? Plastic is not deluxe. LMC you hacks sell the panel with the fabric. Brothers dose why can't you? ??

I spend a lot of money at LMC. I like LMC , BUT , Their door carpet panels suck. Within 6 months the new carpet panels had waves in them and looked like crap. 40 year old original ones I found looked far better. One more thing. I hate cut pile carpet . It sucks in every possible way. The 60's loop style carpet was far superior. Please give us the option for loop style carpet in our 80's trucks.

I paid all this damn money for my door panels just so I can spend hours of hard labor on them. And it's bullshit he "decides" on switching it to black. He did that because it's a pain in the ass to paint everything and it never really last either. Highly disappointed with lmc on this one.
