I have a new 1973 Piper arrow that is showing it years. The upper door panel has a few cracks in it that I have repaired with fiberglass patches on the underside. I have purchased a new replacement panel, but it does not fit very well. I have looked at the parts manual and it appears that there are several numbers for upper door panels but can only find one. I have looked at several sites and they all seem to have the same upper panel, same number. The panel will work, but really does not fit well like the old one. I had to drill new holes for the upper latch and the fit around the edge of the door is not good.
Does anybody know of a source for the original door panel? I am using the old repaired panel as it just fits and looks better than the new but don't know how long the patches will hold up. The plastic is pretty brittle.
