Replacement door panels???

Does anyone make replacement doorpanels for an SA22C??? Mine are in OK shape but the chrome strip is in poor shape.

No one really makes OE replacement door panel parts. There is a right-up in the archives on how to fix them, there is also a forum member that make them in CF, or just keep your eyes open at junkyards.

You could always PM atkins, mazdatrix, apex auto...ect they might have something in good shape

Most any auto upholstery shop can redo the panels. The chrome strip is another problem. You can buy it in various lengths, but the strip then takes end caps to finish it off. Won't look perfectly stock, but will do the job.

yeah...I figured the uphoulstry shop could do then. Just would not be original looking. Man, I can't believe no one makes replacement models!!!

it would be a good business move for an aftermarket mazda supplier, i agree. finding the correct vinyl and fabrics could prove to be troublesome...
