i went on this hunt when i first got my SVT.
mine has the the black cover, but not the doors.
what i have found is the doors only came on the Mystiques.





Ok, so I sounded like I was on crack when I made that post. At least someone understood me!

Ok, I did some searching today and came up with this OE drawing.


The piece ELky pictured is the same I currently have, which is definately from the Mystique. The doors are not listed separatley, which means the part was supersceded to a part without doors, then dropped as it is no longer available from Ford.

The part pictured for the Contour is what I got at the junkyard yesterday, which is also no longer available. Surely somebody is missing 1 of these from them car and needs 1? Like I said, I am just going to throw it away, it was free for me and if anybody wants it, they can have it for the price of shipping. Here it is: A little scuffed, but the door still works.





So today, I stoped by a junkyard that is a few minutes from my house and tada, a Mystique that was damaged for unknown reasons as it wasn't wrecked. Trunk popped open via the lever and there was an unmolested trim piece! I know the guy that works there so it was only $10 after I pulled it out! I didn't get the clips as they stayed in the car, but those are still available so I'll get some new ones next week.



And the elusive plasti-glued doors:


So, my goal has been reached. Don't know why this stupid little thing bothered me so much, especially after yesteday's near find I was determined to get one with doors!
