Door Pockets - time to replace

I'm looking at the various options to repair my door pockets. The original cardboard is in bad shape and warped badly.

Has anyone had any good experience with the fiberglass door pockets that our host sells? I have the carpets.

Thanks,
tyler

The fiberglass ones are hit and miss on quality.

I bought these ABS plastic ones, and they seem nice and fit well.

Bought mine fromVertex. Took some trimming and sanding to get a good fit. Bought correct carpet from World upholstery. End result was vey good and worth the time and effort. Warren

FWIW original material pockets in great shape can be bought in a number of places for $100-150. I found a very nice set in a odd color, stripped off the old material and used the pockets carpet from my new carpet kit to recover them.

This thread reminds me that I need to reattach my sagging one on the drivers side.

I suppose that this is also a common problem, I'm open to suggestions short of an all out replacement.
