With the door relays in place when I try to put the inner door cover panels in place there is interference with the panel and relay. In the factory assembly book there appears to be some type of space attached to the door just above the relay and 2 more along the path that the linkage travels to the door latch. They are labeled #3690230. Does anyone know anything about these. I made wood panels out of a 3/16 thick vineer plywood and when I go to put them on they must bend around the relay and linkage and bind.
Anyone make there own panels? How did you get around this issue?
Like you, we used thin plywood. The plywood bends easier in one direction. You want the easy bend in the up-down direction. The panel doesn't need to bend front-back.
Of course, we got it wrong so I cut horizontal groves in the back of the plywood to make it more flexible. Cut it about 1/2 way through.
There was some recent posts about this subject. One guy used aluminum and it worked our really well.
I have a pix what it looked like installed. Since the picture was taken, I have installed arm rests which help to draw the bump in the lower edge in.
