    Door trims from VB to VL are all interchangable

    Sorry but everyone is wrong the sedan to wagon are slightly different. the felt strip along the top of the door trim on the rear doors is slightly too longto fit a sedan correctly and will need to be trimmed down.

    also if your interested in trims I havea set o calais & berlina trims I need to get rid of gong cheap if your intersted.

    cheers

    I put VL sedan trims in my VK wagz.....they can't be too much different coz I didn't notice any difference with the felt strip. Not saying it's not different, just saying it's prolly not very noticable.

    Are you sure ? The door shells on the VB through to the VL are the same for sedan and wagon .I welded hundreds of these when i worked at GMH, only the window frame is different .

    Positive enough to say that every one else is wrong. The door skins may be the same but the dr frames are not and are only slightly differentto require diferent lengths & positioning of the felts on the rear door rims. The different is slight edan will fit wagon but wagon won fit sedan withotsome trimming.

    Ahh , it could be that the door frame near the end that has the small quarter window on a sedan is a different angle to the wagon .Also there was a small sheet metal plate welded under the quarter window later in production as an anti theft deterent. Maybe the felt was made shorter to compensate for this.
