side panels

Indeed!
Yeah, they look exactly like mine, same color (dark red). They don't match my truck's interior (or lack there of) at all, I bought them strictly to use as templates.
Do I remember correctly, that you need to remove the front seatbelt retractor to install the panels?

Yeah now that I see the pic I remember having to pull the retractors to take the panels off of my buddy's rig. I also didn't notice that the ash trays were in the panels. On the custom deluxe's they are mounted to these flimsy metal tabs. I'd just as soon cover them up...on second thought that might be a good place for some lock boxes. Just big enough for the 9mm and maybe a wallet or something. I wasn't even thinking of going that far forward with the panels...it'd be good enough to end them just before the pillars. My K5 was an old forest service rig so it's got that great grabber green paint job head to toe. Whatever doesn't get painted will need to get covered.

Yeah I could use some too!! it would make it a heck of a lot easier
I just got my new ones today. Had a guy i know that does upholstery work, cover some I had made out of 1/4" plywood years ago, they just had some grey carpet on them before. I could make some patterns of these.

Still looking for a template or measurements if anyone's got them.
