door panels
I'm about to purchase a set of 1995 Z28 black leather door panels for my 2000 Z28-(mine are cracking and are cloth when i have leather seats). does anyone think there will be any install problems? i would imagine they would fit because i doubt the door panel design changed much from lt1 to ls1.

Since he's swapping a Camaro door panel into a Camaro, this won't be a concern for him.

thanks guys, i hope to be getting it installed this weekend for about 50 bucks for both panels. it should really make the car a lot nicer. I'll be one of the few 2000 z28's with all leather! thanks again.

they will fit
this may sound weird, but my dad has a sixer and he got hit fromt the side, they had to replace the door and they put a 95 door on there, and the 2002 inside door panel, it all fit up snug.

Ok, I did my research so I knew 100% what I was talking about before I went and debated this further.
The mounting points on a 94 Camaro do not entirely match the mounting points on the Trans Am. You have to cut them off.

To make the new panels fit you'll have to cut off the three tabs that stick out as the mounting points for the TA panels will be different. You can see the arrows here pointing to the newly created holes where the old mounting points were. To make the new mounting points simply place the panels on and drill the new holes right through the door panel.

The early year the interiors were "Graphite" a darkish grey, in 2000 and up the interios turned to "Ebony" and were virtually black.
