It took me 2 hrs to install mine. Wiring the mirror switch up is a B!tch. It took me longer to wire up the mirrors than to install the panels. Actually it was a B!tch to install my entire TA interior but it pays off nicely everytime i sit in my car, the dash lights red, the door panels flow well with the car and the
TA seats hug my ***.

Re: t/a door panels in a camaro

Someone posted a wiring diagram a while back and thats what I used. Have to search for it. T/A door panels are great and yeah takes no more than 2 hours. I have some not so good pics in my sig.

Re: t/a door panels in a camaro

Obviously because some of us like the looks of our Camaro's more but we think its easier to add TA interior rather than buy a Bird and put Camaro body panels on it.

Re: t/a door panels in a camaro

i'm only running 3 screws in mine. The two in the door handle area and the one in the pocket. I drilled the fourth hole in the arm rest, i just haven't put the screw in yet.
