Default Question about Garage Vary door cards (and other general carbon door cards)

I’m in the market for some carbon door cards but I can’t help notice that 99.999% of them are just carbon sheets with door handle cutouts and no holes for speakers, arm rests, or window cranks.

dont get me wrong I’m probably crazy enough to sacrifice window cranks on a car with no a/c and a permenant hard top but I draw the line at not being able to listen Alice Cooper’s greatest hits because I would have no speakers.

I found a single vendor offering the carbon door cards with a speaker hole but once again no window cranks. So is it just random for these door cards or do you somehow have to import them from Japan with the holes for the window crank and speakers? I was under the impression that majority of NA miatas didn’t have electric windows so it was weird to me that most aftermarket carbon door cards screw over the dude with manual window cranks

They probably figure you can drill what holes you want.

I live by the door crank. I will die by the door crank.

I say get the one with the speaker hole and drill for the crank, that seems easiest.
