    What ever happened to those "supposed new reproduced" door trim panels? Thought they were to be out by this time?

    Year and a half.....and still counting.

    Just goes to show that if we, as the Maverick community, want parts produced.....we have to support the companies when they do so. Once word gets out that we will actually "buy" the stuff....companies will step up.

    When we don't.....they don't.

    Wonder how many people bought the reproduction kick panels? I know of only less than a handful. Like Craig said..."We have to support the companies when they do so. Once word gets out that we will actually "buy" the stuff....companies will step up."

    They were not the company MAKING them. They would just be one of the companies SELLING them.

    Yes they are going to be made. Tooling is on the second round of adjustments. The manufacturer will not release a product that is not superior in quality.
