Description

Overview

The Smittybilt Replacement Upper Doorskin with Frame (part 79415) is a driver side upper door panel in black denim. It comes with the original style factory door framework, so the panel can be replaced as one unit.

The fabric is marine grade and vinyl coated, with heat sealed seams. It is built to resist fading and stretching, and it uses DOT approved window material.

Key features

  • Driver side only
  • Black denim fabric
  • Original style door framework included
  • Heat sealed seams
  • DOT approved window material

Choosing a replacement skin

A replacement upper skin is judged by how well it seals and how it moves with the door. Look at the frame shape, the fit against the door opening and the way the window sits when closed. A panel that pulls or bulges at the top edge usually points to a frame that is out of line, not a faulty fabric.

Sun exposure matters a great deal for soft top fabrics. Vinyl that sits in strong sun for years can dry out, fade and lose its stretch, which makes seams more likely to split. Choosing a fabric designed to resist fading and stretching is a practical way to slow that wear, and rinsing the skin regularly helps too.

  • Compare the frame shape with the old panel before removing it
  • Keep the window clear of grit to protect its seal

Questions & Answers

Is part 79415 for the driver side?

Yes. It is a driver side upper doorskin with frame, in black denim, so the passenger side needs a separate part.

Does it include the door framework?

Yes. The original style factory door framework is included with the panel, so the complete upper section comes as one piece.

What material is the panel?

It is marine grade, vinyl coated fabric with heat sealed seams and DOT approved window material. The fabric is built to resist fading and stretching.

What should I check on the door frame before installing?

Check that the frame is straight, the hinge points are sound and the frame sits evenly in the door opening. Any bent or cracked section will pull the panel out of line and cause wind noise or leaks.

How can I tell when the upper skin needs replacing?

Look for cracked or chalky vinyl, seams that have started to separate, a zipper that catches, or a window that has clouded. Water getting in at the top edge and stretching around the frame are also signs the panel has reached the end of its service life.
