I've got a crew cab or I'd probably have bought all of them from the wreck I got the front ones from.
I'm not in a big hurry so I might have the guy at my local salvage yard try to find some. The prices he is giving me are quite a bit cheaper than eBay or car-part.com. I might go see him about the rear doors when I check in at the end of next week to see if he's found a speedometer for me.
He said to keep checking back and he'd keep looking until they found one I want. As enthusiastic as he is about helping me I believe he's on commission.

Hey we all need to make a living! But it sounds like he is cutting you a great deal on parts!

Yep yep! One of my two jobs pays on commission. I can almost always tell when someone is on commission, because they usually want to help you more than those that aren't paid commission.
The salvage yard is one of the LKQ chain but the prices are seriously less than most of the prices I've seen on car-part.com and eBay.

I’m looking at some genuine leather arm rest cushions on eBay for about $18. They come with peel n stick backing. I’m going to give it a try and we’ll let you guys know if it’s a possible solution.

I found a pair on Amazon for $14. They come with a very sticky double sided pad that seems to be pretty strong. They look decent and feel great. Let's see if the glue holds up.

apparently there is a person

user name rvcamping

That must go around to all the auto dismantling yards & grabs the interior door panels.
He is advertising so many, he may be paying the guys at the local dismantling yards to pull them as they enter the yard & he will give them X amount of bucks for each of them

He has many different parts for Ram trucks including many electronic parts, consoles, bezels, instrument clusters, roof antennas, door mirrors, too much to list

Thanks for the heads up. He's got a lot. I saved his profile in case I need something later.
