Does anyone have experience with fiberglass repo door pockets? I know they're offered through several suppliers (Pelican, ebay, autobahn, original fit, appbiz, and more), but I haven't been able to find any posts which discuss quality.
I'm hoping to find a quality set which don't require "fitting", or re-working of the fiberglass, to get a factory appearance. Affordable price would also be nice but quality more important.
Any advice and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

My understanding is the most of the fiberglass pockets will require some "massaging" to get them to fit properly. I bought some from Original Fit Interiors that weren't even close. I didn't want to mess with them, so I ended up selling them for 50 cents on the dollar to someone who could work them into place.

Most people go with the fiberglass because they don't warp like the original, cardboard ones.
Pelican sells right side OEM pockets for 74-89. Part number 911-555-038-00-709-OEM. $278.25 (I'm assuming that's per pocket, without carpet or vinyl trim). Left side is NLA.

I bought fiberglass and they fit perfectly. The only problem that I see using fiberglass is getting them covered with carpet to look original. I recarpeted the entire car and the only area I'm not satisfied with is the door pockets.
