Default 1999 Trans Am

Does anyone have a source for interior door panels. Like many, my driver's side door panel cracked.

Best luck is to look in the Classfieds, or E-Bay. Mine are cracked on both really bad. But Ive just decided to live with it, theyre not even noticable when your in the car.

How would SFC's (sub frame connectors) stop the door from flexing?

Got mine from ebay, no cracks but before installing I reinforce them to prevent it from happening.

The SFC argument is completely absurd....explain me how the flex the unibody has could possibly affect.....the door....panel? Even the SFC use is controversial since the unibody construction in these cars is very solid.

LOL, or just get new panels and skip the useless SFC on a car that doesnt need them.
