I'm kind of tired of looking at my passenger side door handel which is currently held in place by wood screws.

Does anybody know where I can find one of these? Obviously I'm not going to find a new one but all the junkyards around me don't have a first gen Explorer, let alone many 2 doors.

Maybe somebody's got one tucked away in their garage that I could buy off them? ;) :thumbsup:

It's a 2 door with tan interior, any help is MUCH appreciated! :)

Try ebay or maybe rockauto. I'm heading to the local pick and pull on Monday so if I see one I'll pull it. They have two doors from time to time but usually with grey interiors. Good luck with maybe finding one online.
 






I can't remember if it was LMC or Rockauto, but I saw them once. You'll have to buy the whole panel, and I don't know how original the colors are.
 






Thanks for the help guys! I've found a couple panels on various online sites but they're all with power windows.

If anybody does come across one in a junkyard I'd be very willing to buy it from you :)
 






They're VERY hard to find. I have a 2-door with those same armrests, with the blue interior - took me years to find one in a junkyard. I am out of the country until April right now, but contact me around that timeframe and I'll check my parts stash. I might have one.

Alternately, I've seen some pretty decent reproductions made of wood. With some skill you could make a really nice replacement or two.
 






I found my gray ones on Ebay.
 






Well I went to the pick and pull today and not only was there only one 2 door but it had a grey interior and even that was all pulled off and taken. Sorry, dude. Good luck finding one online, though. I'm sure they're out there and hopefully not too expensive.

I will keep my eyes peeled for one, though. I'm over there often enough that I'm bound to find oddball stuff sooner or later.
 






Don't make the same mistake I did and get excited when you find a 4-door with manual windows - the 4-door armrests are the same design but shorter.

Thanks a lot man, really appreciate you taking the time to check! :thumbsup:

And thanks to everyone else for the tips and suggestions :)
