I haven't been enough accurate ! When i (or the "Hollander") said 
"doors", it's sheet metal, not the (cardboard-trim) panel .
The trims are different depending year and model : 57-58 Crown/Lebaron 
have "storage box" inside the armrest (with a locking strap on '58). 59 
also but different. 57-58 Crown/Lebaron have aluminium diamond shape 
plates (with stamped "crown" on '58) above the armrest, 59 also but 
seems narrower, 57-58 (59 ?)  "base model" not. And so on ..
So depending year and model you'll find different panels with 
supplementary holes or things. But according to the pics from "Imperial 
photo archive" the 59 are much different than 57-58 differences.
