Default Rear Storage Compartment....

Has anyone replaced their rear storage compartment door frames? How do the replacement frames fit onto the doors? The old frames were hard to remove because of the way they were mounted, they had small holes that fit over small bumps in the doors (very tight). Would the new ones be the same?

I don't know about that, but I just received my complete rear compartment doors from Mid America and am very happy with the color match and quality of the parts. I think the frame is of better quality than the stock one that it will replace. Just a note for those whom it may concern.
