my door panels were in great condition on the inside of the car but the pressed board backing was shot. The slots wouldn't hold door panel locating pins anymore so I bought the door backing replacement set from LMR and at first when I swapped out the old backing for new I was thrilled with how it came out.

However I had the panels off the whole time my car was in the body shop and today I tried to reinstall the driver side. Very disappointed to find these don't line up the same as the old panel did.
I took my time, very carefully removed the old backing board, then I fitted the new board into the folds of the vinyl and made adjustments since the replacements are a bit bigger and need to be trimmed. I compared the old board on top of the new on the be sure I had aligned the backing board right.
The locating push pins are off almost a full inch. The only thing I can think of is to drill new locating holes in the door.
Any suggestions?
