Icon2 Del Sol door panel inserts??

Everyone knows and has seen the wrinkled del sol door panels, about 2 years ago i came across a guy on ebay selling inserts that cover the arm rest on the door to hide the ugly wrinkles that they all have... Stupid me never bought them and i am regretting it now since cant find them anywhere... I guess im just wondering if anyone has come across these inserts or has made them, or knows anyone who is selling them??

Here's a option you might what to consider. Just replace the vinyl completely.

At the time i saw them then were very well priced, only like 20 bucks i think, and i wasnt just materials it was formed fiberglass piece covered to match the interior, and if i buy new door panels they will just let go the same way every del sol door panels do after a few years, it was a design flaw, so i was considering a long term solution...

I know this is bumping a year + old thread, but i'd like to know if anybody knows if these are back on the market. Can't seem to find them on ebay. Again, sorry for the bump...

I am fully prepared to re-wrap my door panels if these things really don't exist anymore. I'm not lazy, it's just there's a reason why these have that common problem, and I was really curious if anybody knew where they could still be purchased. That's why I asked. When you stretch vinyl that much to fit those curves, it's bound to wrinkle eventually. The panel on my driver's side is actually torn.

Either option is just as ok to me.
