Especially, since it is hard to find the original white door panel and the arm pad to match.
Actually with the black dash pad, black carpet and steering column, seat belt retractors and gauge bezel I like the look of the black door panels on your truck. I bought a chrome glove box door and am going to paint the insert flat part of it black to match the gauge bezel and balance out the interior look. The pic is photoshopped.

I like what you have done to the inside of yours!

That was my thinking behind painting them black. It ties in nicely with the other black components on the truck. Plus, there is black in the plaid material.
