240 side pocket query...
Greetings! I have a Volvo 240 and you all know about the fragile door pockets. The thing is, I could have sworn I saw a soft pocket once for that. It was either an after market item or a deluxe option. Either way, I searched almost everywhere online and could not find a trace of it anywhere. Has anyone else seen those? They were a great alternative to the plastic ones and I am interested in replacing mine.

After passengers broke 2 pockets, I took unbroken ones and laid fiberglass matting with resin on the inside where it does not show. It made them substantially more rigid and I (they) haven't broken one yet. Five years ago, a pair of unbroken pockets would cost upwards of $80 but with the flood of parts onto eBay since then, they can often be had for half that. I have not seen IPD's overlay for the pockets, but if the quality and fit is similar to their overlay for the dash...I do not want 'em.

I had seen the dash overlays in the IPD catalog and wondered about them. Glad to have read your feedback.
