New cuda door panels!

[TinCuda]

I kind of hate to ask this due to it only applies to such a small percent.  This may have already been addressed (I haven't read all 14 pages of this thread).   

Do these panels come with or can they be modified for square electric window switch holes?

I am mostly interested in white rear quarters.

Thanks

on the cuda door panels the regulator hole AND the switch square hole is in the same location, Unlike the challengers that will not have any holes.

I guess what I am asking is,  is the round window crank hole smaller than the square electric window switch so I could cut a clean square Hole over the round hole?

Only 2%-5% of 'Cudas had electric windows and mine is one of them.  I really wouldn't expect to have these pre-cut for such a small percentage of cars.  Finding a set that was pre-cut would be really cool, but I can modify them my self if the round hole is small enough.

I am mostly interested in the rear quarters because those are what needs replaced.   My door panels are ok.

Here is the rear side of the Cuda rear sets with the cut outs showing.

That looks great.   Thank you very much.

Update!

The panels have just cleared customs, and are scheduled to be here at 8AM tomorrow Jan 27th.

We will all be in to unload, and will hopefully get a few out tomorrow before the mail run.  There will be a massive amount going out on Monday.

I'll post some unloading pics tomorrow afternoon.

The truck has been unloaded, and sorted.

We are now parting them out for shipping.

Okay, I've looked around but can seem to find anything on this.  What is the best way to cut a hole in the new panels.  I have the remote driver side mirror adjuster, and see the cutout on the backside of the panel, but don't want to screw it up.

Mirror hole?   Drillbit?

PW holes?  Dremel.

[73Chally]

The mirror hole is the same size as the window crank. I just want to be sure the dremel won't do anything to melt the plastic.

I used one of these bits on mine. The bits have little teeth on their outside edge and I ran the drill in reverse so it would cut much more slowly and not tear out. It made a very clean hole.

Has anyone ordered a set of new panels and received the wrong set?  I ordered Challenger front and rear door panels, and I ended up getting Cuda rear panels.  Not Roseville's fault, because the box was labelled Challenger, so someone f-ed up at the factory.  I just want to put the word out for anyone that might have ordered a set, then put them away for some later date.  Check to make sure you got the right ones.

If you got white ones for a Cuda, tell Dave when you return them that he can send them to Steve Walthall, I have had them on back order.....
