why delete map pocket when you can just wrap it too? even if broken they CAN be repaired in a way so that they don't break again.

I personally feel it is a cleaner look without the map pocket...what would be REALLY sweet is to delete the map pocket but build a fairly strong pocket...maybe even with contours to pull the door shut. I always feel like I'm going to break stuff...then again I'm fairly large and strong by normal standards. =)

Installed on Seibon carbon fiber door. This is harder than putting on stock. Cuz CF door panels are less flexible.

3K silver carbon... As u can see from here. This is not a hand over lay product. It is hot pressed with metal cast molding. Makes them stronger and perfect.

You guys do know that the map pockets dont break if you adjust the tension on the lid spring to be less which causes it to not want to < SNAP > shut so hard, right? It takes all of 5 minutes to do this.

that being said, these are cool looking. No way Id give up my map pocket though and it would look stupid (or least not as good) with a plastic map pocket top and CF everything else.

im more in for consistency of the whole drivers side being carbon fiber than having the map pocket or not. either a map pocket cover, or map pocket delete is fine imo
