Did not realize till recently when I saw a picture of the door panel that the TCs came with Map Pockets - mine had none.
What is the deal? Rare? No value? Break and are thrown away?
Never seen any for sale.
Any idea where I might buy a couple?
Thanks!

They came on all 85-88 TC's.
Rare = No
No Value = ????
Break & are thrown away = Mostly
Seriously, most of them have broken off & the owners have thrown them away. You can post an ad in the wanted section & maybe someone has an extra set for sale. Good Luck.

There were various versions on the 83-84's as well. Some had the rigid pockets and the TC's XR-7s had the netted style.

Brian, did your new door panel match the color of your turbo bird? I've been thinking about doing this, just cause I get so sick of r/r all that stuff on the door. Now I leave it off [Image: biggrin.gif] Would be nice to have a simpler door panel.
