I received my new 3LT Kahlahari 2016 Door panels from Patrick and Gene at Cultrag Performance yesterday. Great service as always, the door panels were packaged perfectly and I was able to swap them out in no time.

I can tell you the driver side door is a little more involved getting that aluminum and leather strip piece to line up perfect but you can easily adjust them with the 7mm socket bolts that hold it in. I'm sure this is what they check at the factory to align the driver door area to the dash.

Now I have the full wrapped look without the lighter seats which is what I wanted from the start. Here are the results, the car was originally 3LT Jet Black but now has a splash of color:

I like that as well...the two tone mix is what I wanted and why I didn't get all red or all black in my car...I have the two tone red/black factory option.

I didn't realize the strip on the left panel was adjustable. Mine doesn't line up well with the dash. I'll have to see if I can improve it. Thanks for the information.

Yes, both pieces ( the leather and the aluminum ) pivot up and down in the bracket and can be adjusted to the proper location and once tight will stay.

This does involve putting the panel on seeing where it is then removing and adjusting the piece to where it needs to be to align perfect with the dash. I've seen some cars where it's completely off, so if anyone has that issue, it can be fixed.

I'm digging it. The contrast looks great while keeping the seats black.
