Door pocket replacement.

[MidMiHunter]

I really appreciate your help. My wife drives the jeep once in awhile and needs the seat all the way forward or close to it. I love the tactical look of these but unfortunately they're not going to work for my jeep.

Thank you my friend.

NP. FWIW, I probably wouldn’t buy them again, but since I took the time to install them, I decided to keep them.

Unfortunately, I'm not going to pry on my door panels. I just can't bring myself to do it.

You're just south of me. Drive up here with grilled scallops and an arugula salad (no pizza and beer for this debutante ) and I'll carefully peel off the door panels while you wax poetic about the inherent goodness of legacy flip phones.

No siree Bob! You'll do no such thing. You keep your hands in your pockets. As much as I appreciate the offer, I don't want you or anyone else peeling off my door panels. If I want those rascals off they're coming off, if I have to take a crowbar to them. And I'm still on the fence about a flip phone.

I might be one foot in the grave, half blind, but this old codger still got it.

I foot in the grave and half blind is better than one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel!!

Is it? Is it really???

Is it? Is it really???

Yes, yes it is. Please, allow me to explain. If my other foot is on a banana peel, I could potentially slide into the grave. I don't need any additional help.

But if you're half-blind isn't there a good chance you wouldn't see where to put your other foot and just fall into the grave even without a banana peel???

I'll take my chances with my one good eye OK? Keep those stinking banana peels away from me for the love of Pete!

No the JOYTUTUS -- wrote slightly more above but they were the best choice for me.

I'm in no real hurry for door pocket replacements. It would be greatly appreciated to get some feedback from you after you get them installed.

Just came across these… I’m tempted, knowing that I wouldn’t keep anything in the rubber band on an ongoing basis

Thoughts and/or experience with them?

That's an interesting concept.

Thoughts?

Just a data point of one, but: I wouldn't consider any aftermarket door pockets that allow the retention of the OEM door nets. The latter's continued presence looks like an absolute bodge with a second door pocket now stuck on top.

More to the point, the retained nets would intrude (by necessity) on the already narrow working space between the new door pockets and the seats. Having to recurringly and carefully insert and remove items in the new pockets, due to the constant interference of the nets, is a firm deal-breaker.

While removing the door panels and then the nets is of course additional work, that pales in comparison to the effort required to install even a simple spacer lift...meaning, it's a bit odd to see door panel removal mentioned as a concern by this community.

The owner isn't prevented from simply cutting the nets off from the front, either. Done.

I have a new door net replacement idea. How about, trampoline material. It's very strong and won't sag.

If anyone wants to run with this to bulbhead.com feel free.

I thought about making my own replacement nets but dismissed the idea because it's a lot of work for something I don't use anyway.

I'm really considering some molle type replacements though. My keys keep catching on the nets when I jump out of the Jeep. My drivers side looks like this and they've literally never been used:
