    aparently the VR/S rear quarter windows are a couple of cm longer. if you want, measure along the window (front to back) to the furtherest point and i'll measure my VS and post up.

    VR/S chrome surrounds are a 1 piece job, not entierly sure about VN/P whether this can be seperated.

    no need to measure there different shapes visually (quarter windows).... not only that if your getting chrome window treatment, the drip rail moldings for vn vp are different lengths as well. not that he vn ones come chrome but i thought id mention it... think the vr/vs ones are a different length too...
    dont sweat the petty... pet the sweaty...

    The Vr/Vs Quarter glass and chrome mold's are a different shape and will not fit a VN-VP, But the chrome trim is removable and come's off in two pieces.

    The rest of the chrome from a VR/VS will fit a VN/VP and you will need to source the rear quarter glass and chrome trim from a VN/VP Berlina or Calais

    I did this with my VP stole all the chrome apart from the rear quarter's from a VR berlina and grabed the quarter glass with chrome from a VN calais at the wrecker's.

    sorry mate been flat out trying to find these, and these guys are right they are a slightly different shape, i hate GM's guts right now.. so davovp, your saying the chrome strip that runs along that waterwell above the doors is the same? and whats quite obvious now is i definately need windows with the chrome off a vp calais/berlina.. wich are as rare as "hens teeth" so wreckers keep telling me.. i dont think rare spares even has them... :/ cheers for ya help guys.
