Wanted to redo the fabric on it and I thought there were clips. Obviously not. So where do I get another door panel?:laughat:

You're ok, don't worry. Just pick up a pack of short screws that are slightly larger than hole in the plastic cylinders on the back of the fabric panel. Oh, and a set of washers too.

Install your fabric of choice on the panel. Then remove the door panel and attach screws/washers from the backside. Now they are removable whenever you want to make a fabric change.

Awsome! Thanks for the input. Im guessing I have to rip the passenger side off the same way then?

I wouldn't rip the other one off...... I took mine off by removing the whole panel, turning it over and grinding the plastic rivets down till you can pop the insert out. I used #8 x 1/2" screws and #10 3/16" washers to reattach my inserts. My interior is different tho so they may not be ideal for you

Great info! Your whole page setup is great! Good pics and I like the two tone.

I think Darren might have created a Pdf on doing this for his panels. http://www.sidewindercustoms.com/
