door panels

Post by justice »

Will the interior door panels from a 1996 and up fit on the doors on my 87? I was thinking it would be nice to have the updated panels.

Of course It will probaly be impossible for me to find a pair of blue ones, since I have never seen a post 1994 Strofari in the junk yards around here...

I don't think they'll fit without drilling alternate holes for the fatseners, but I suppose that's no biggie. Finding anything blue will be a *$%&, however...

Yeah, it seems like all the first gen vans had a blue interior (blue exterior, too). Must've used up all the blue parts by 1990.
