Will these door kick panels actually fit my 1987 Vanagon, or are they generic plastic pieces?

These specific door kick panels are designed and vacuum-formed to perfectly fit all 1980-1991 Vanagon models. They are made from black TPO plastic and thermoformed over a mold to ensure they match the contours of your van's lower inner door for a clean, flush installation.

How do I install this door panel without drilling holes?

Installation is straightforward and requires no drilling. The panels come with pre-applied 3M VHB tape. Simply clean the surface of your van's inner door, peel off the tape backing, and firmly press the panel into place. It's a secure, damage-free mounting method.

What's the main benefit of adding this kick panel to my Vanagon's door?

These panels serve two main purposes: protection and aesthetics. They cover up the somewhat unfinished look of the inner door area, including visible spot welds, providing a clean, finished appearance. They also protect your van's paint from scuffs and marks from your boots.

Does this kit include panels for both the driver and passenger side doors?

Yes, the Inner Door Kick Panel kit is sold as a pair, meaning you'll receive one panel for the driver's side door and one for the passenger's side door, ready for installation on both.

The lower kick panel on the Vanagon always looked cheap and unfinished with just the pressed sheet metal inset. These give a finished look and resist scuffing better than the paint surface.

My kick panels on my van were beat to hell! Previous owner must have had steel toed boots. These are a great coverup and fit nicely!! I added a little extra 3M tape to ensure they never fall off.
