These are ALMOST identical to the ones used on the e3 models. You can take the e3’s, flip upside down, remove the end cap, cut the piece to length, reattach the end piece, and install. Only a VERY discerning eye would be able to tell the difference. I’d give more details on the process but it’s been more that 30 years since I did mine.

Yes, very similar. Top one is new, bottom one original.

These new ones are connected differently, they have threads for bolts.

should have asked Chris ... didn't know you had been looking. perhaps i missed a post


i think these were made by our friends in Poland. i could be wrong, i just remember that somebody started making them.

Correct. @KastelikClassicCar made them as door panels, chrome door panel trims and trunk elephant skin complete.

I was told they are different in a way they do not need weak clips. They have screws integrated, which helps to keep them without drilling them through after some time. ;-)
