Funny, I was going to say the same thing.  What a great place for them....

LOL - are you guys being sarcastic?

It's a $35 repop console panel, so I didn't figure it would hurt anything, and they do work well there...  I figured door panels are harder to come by and more expensive, plus more work to get them mounted solid.  The point was the dash panel, though, which I thought Dashboard Restorations did a great job on!

eeehm... I'm not being sarcastic... I would preffer on doors like original thought, but for a while that custom job is good done, I wouldn't care

It seems a lot of stuff coming out is a joke these days on 2ed gen as well. They need to take there time and make a good product.  They would make more money in the long run. Why couldn't they fix the mold? You mean every one that is sent out is gonna have the same defects?

I am no plastic or molding person but I would imagine they made a mold from a dash pad that had the buggers in it. Maybe tried to patch it and make it look decent and it obviously transfered to the mold. As flimsy as it is in the picture I bet the speedometer area would most definately sag. Imagine what it may do when it gets warmed up on a hot summer day.
These cars are worth too much money to replace with this kind of garbage. For that kind of garbage and price I'll just keep my original dash with its crack in it. It dont look that bad. Thanks for those post Dew! We need to know about this stuff!

OH no, no sacrasm either, I do think that is a cool place to put them.  Like you said, why cutup nice expensive door panels when you can cut up a nice repop panel.  Had friend put his power window switches in the center console for his 68 Charger.  Worked nicely.
