Grey Leather Door Panels

Are these fairly common, or more on the rare side? I have a chance to scoop up a set for my TA, but cash is very tight at the moment so I am wondering how often they appear for sale? I did a quick search and didn't find any mentioned anywhere.

Thanks for your time and help.

I have a set in my 92 Camaro that match my leather seats. I have not seen a lot of them.

I guess I have to ask:

Are they the molded pieces with leather inserts or are they the flat cardboard ones with leather inserts?

The molded ones I would think would be worth snatching (get the arm rest brackets if you can.)

If they are the flat ones, you can easily replace the inserted area with leather. Would not stress about it. Especially if your panels are in good shape. Basically you remove the metal "L" piece and the top plastic door sil and then you can peal the old stuff out. using some 3M 90 spray adhesive you can put the leather in.
