Installing a Chevrolet C10 Interior - An Inside Job: Part One - Tech

The door panels are universal for all window and lock combinations. This truck is equipped with power windows; therefore, the inner measurements of the window switch is transferred to the panel, and then 1/4-inch holes are drilled just inside the corners of the measurements. Next, a cut-off wheel (a small hacksaw blade would work as well) is used to cut from the top of each hole to its corresponding hole. Continue this until the square hole is cut out. Duplicate this process for door lock switches. In cases where manual windows are being used, use a hole saw to cut out the necessary area.

Once the hole is cut, the power window switch simply snaps into place.

To install the door panel insert the two provided anchors on the backside, then slide the top lip over the inner window opening and push the door panel in place. From there secure the panel with the provided screws.

The door handle bezel slips into place, and then secures with two screws.

Door straps insert by placing the billet strap covers over the ends of the straps, and then Allen screws secure the strap to the door.

The last step is to install the lower carpeted door panel. Simply align the panel in place, and then drill 1/8-inch holes through the panel and into the door. A hole at each corner, and then one in the middle of the upper and lower rail of the panel will be efficient. Once the holes are drilled, secure the panel by using the provided screws.
