1st gen door panel replacements don't fully match?

[Xandor]

I went to order door panel replacements but noticed they dont look like they fully match.

It looks like every one is see ends 1 inch over the top door handle. That doesnt look like it would match originals.

Am i missing something here?

Your truck is a fancy truck.

Us peons with lower trims have the smaller door panels. I think the new aftermarket ones are solid plastic rather than cardboard wrapped in very thin vinyl and hopes.

The one on the left looks like the door panel for a 1984-1988 Ford Bronco II and the plain looking panel is for a 1983-1988 Gen I Ford Ranger.

I had to go look at brochures for the Gen I Rangers. I don't recall seeing that panel on one, but they were definitely on the XLT, XLS and XLT models (and apparently the GT).
