Missing plastic piece
Good afternoon everyone!
I was doing some deep cleaning of my jeep and some how lost both the panels you take off to disconnect the rear doors in a JKU.
Does anyone know what the name of those are? I did some searching on google and came up blank.

Unfortunately, what you are looking for is sold as part of that entire trim piece I believe, rather than being sold separately. They are ~$70 each too -

Here's some discount options on Ebay.
$51

$30

However, questionable seller reliability is the risk with those price options. 98.7% feedback rating.

I never understand why parts like this that are basically mirror images of each other, are priced differently. Is this some supply and demand thing....manufacture finds people needing one side more than the other?

Really, the symetry thing does not bother me at all. The driver's side hook, mounted on the passenger's side works just as good and the only one that notices the passenger side tow hook is curved the wrong way is probably me.

Anyway, we had several human factors engineers working on the project, too. And they pointed out that it is poor design to have symmetrical elements. That is, if you reach up with the tool in your left hand to do something on the left side of a control panel, then you'll likely reach up with the tool in your left hand on the right side (assuming that such is within reach). So, I put the shackles on my Jeep such that they are not symmetrical, but that the same exact procedure is used on either to remove it. Same thing for the rear bumper.

Sorry, I didn't realize you were talking about something for an '08 (per your profile). The interior moldings changed in 2011. I'd think that if you have an '08 then it might be a bit different size/shape. The ones on eBay should really say '11-'18.
