Has anyone changed out these little roll doors that are such a PITA?
How do you remove them, and do you have good sources to buy them?

thanks!
 
Google "tambour"
That is what the doors are made of.
You can try to locate the originals or make your own out of door kits.

I've Google that. Can't find small ones but lots of info on desk sized ones. Also, can find how to remove and install. Would much prefer and different door, but don't want to design one.
 
Get a roll top desk one and cut it to size. I believe that is what Pietro (Italy) did during his overhaul. They are a PITA because they are "canned" on the top and bottom so the assemble has to be removed in order to replace the doors. At least that is how it is on my 330.
 
They will stick if there is any humidity in the cabin.The wood will swell slightly causing them to stick.
