Default Le Barron Bonney interior for 37

Hi Guys, I had my interior installed by a professional. He did a great job. But he did not finish. The last thing that is left are the door panels. He told me he was unable to install, because the holes didnt line up. My original panels have different clips that don't use the holes. Has anyone run into this? I will try to post pics. Thanks

Yes twice with LBB door panels.In 2007 and 2016. In 2007 they sent a prepaid shipping box and returned them correctly redone. In 2016 for my '33 the lower row of holes were off 3/8" in height.I was able to make the adj with the clips.

I also experienced something very similar a few years ago when I bought a LB kit for my '34. I got some help from one of LeBarron Bonney's local installers who worked with the team at LeBarron Bonney to get it sorted out. I don't guess that is an option any more.

Would you like the name and contact information for the man who helped me out?

I had the same problem with the door panels on my36 coupe. Their quality control had gone down hill for the last ten years.
