I'm looking to upgrade my Vanagon interior. How durable are these ABS plastic door trim panels, and what finish options are available?

Our ABS Plastic Trim Panel Set for the front doors is made from tough, 3mm thick ABS plastic, CNC-machined for a precise fit. They're designed to be a durable and attractive upgrade for all Vanagons. You can use them right out of the box, paint them with plastic-compatible paint for a custom look, or even upholster them to match your interior. They're a fantastic foundation for a personalized Vanagon door panel experience.

Will these ABS trim panels fit my specific Vanagon year, and what about speaker installation?

Absolutely! This ABS Plastic Trim Panel Set is designed to fit all Vanagon models from 1980 to 1991. The speaker hole is pre-sized for late-model stock speakers. If you have an earlier Vanagon, you might need to slightly enlarge the hole to accommodate a 4-inch speaker. The panels come with scribed lines on the back to help you easily customize cut-outs for handles, switches, and speakers, making installation straightforward.

I'm not the most experienced DIYer. How difficult is the installation of these door trim panels, and what's included?

We've made installation as simple as possible! The ABS Plastic Trim Panel Set includes a pair of panels (driver and passenger sides), all the necessary panel clips, and straightforward instructions. We also provide a link to a helpful YouTube installation video on the product page. The pre-cut lines on the back make marking and cutting for your specific needs much easier, even for those new to interior van modifications.

I want my Vanagon's interior to look clean and modern. Do these panels come in different colors, and how do they compare to the original door cards?

Yes, these ABS Plastic Trim Panels are available in both sleek Gray and classic Black, giving you options to complement your Vanagon's interior aesthetic. They offer a cleaner, more modern look compared to the often worn-out original door cards. The precise CNC machining ensures a great fit, and the ability to customize with paint or upholstery means you can achieve a truly unique and high-quality finish that stands out.

These CNC-machined interior door panels are crafted from nearly-indestructible, 3mm thick ABS plastic. Each panel features cut-outs for the door and grab handles, but all other options (power window switch, power mirror switch, manual window cranks, map pocket mounting locations, and speaker hole) are scribed onto the back side of the panel with easy-to-follow lines. In other words, you'll be able to choose exactly how your panel is set up!

These panels can be run as-is (they look awesome), painted with a high-quality plastic paint, or upholstered.

Sold as a pair (driver/passenger doors). Available in Gray or Black.

Simple instructions & panel clips included.

A Perfect Fit!

After owning my 1987 Van for nearly 39 years, it's been redone overall only once, but the interior door panel replacements didn't hold up. After a few heavy rainstorms, some leakage took tool on the for panel backing nearly disintegrating areas into mush. The ABS material panel replacements are just what I need, and since all the areas for the switches, door handles, arm rests, and pocket mounts were etched on the back; all I needed to do was to recover the facings with new matching material and cut out the holes I want to use. A perfect fit too!

Minimalist door panels are not so minimalist as that

You can do this on your own using your old doors as templates, but for people with two left hands like me, these ABS panels are a godsend. This template not only has the cutouts already drawn out with precision, but they are even indented to provide even greater success in the cutout process (although oddly, one of the cutouts I received was missing a circle which was irrelevant for my purposes). The machining is exquisite, and my Vanagon is going to look badass with these black inserts. Should I want a softer look later on, these will serve as a perfect, rock-solid base.

The new panels were an easy install. Used trim router to cut in the window switches. All the fastener holes lined up just fine. The only issue is the panels are a bit thinner then the original ones so the window switches are a bit loose. I would imagine it will be an easy fix when it bothers me enough to pull the panels back off and add a bit more thickness to that area.. Im very pleased with the up grade from 39 year old door panels that were worn out..

ABS panels

Talk about a game changer in the appearance of my westy. Easy to install and easy to clean. Don’t think twice order and put a smile on your face 🤙🏽

Perfect Fit!

Huge difference in the look and function of the doors. They look just awesome!!!
I traced the speaker location from old panel. I opted to not install the map pocket and it gives it a great simple look not cluttered by the old water damaged panel.

Solid

Easy to install and a great way to update your van (the original door panels on my van were hanging by their last threads). Super easy to clean and maintain too
