    Im not 100% sure on front doors, but back doors definitly wont, just look at the window frames and you will see what i mean, the VS sedan doors lokk closer to a VN wagon door.
    I though the door trims were interchangeable though?

    Yes VS front doors will fit onto a VN, BUT wiring loom is different, c/locking mechanism is different. You can just use the door shell with no problem.
    We know this as we sell these parts everyday.

    All the stuff from your door will fit straight on.
    For eg...

    Windows are the same
    Window regulator is the same

    Loom, Doorlock mechanism, outside door handle is different ( VN are plastic, VS ar steel)
    door trims are different

    thats about it

    i dont like the flimsy plastic door handles on my vn. if the vs outer door handles are steel, that sounds like a good upgrade. do they fit?

    Front and rear doors are the same VN-VS... And wagon doors are the same as sedan doors...So no idea what you're on about there.

    And to the last post, yes the door handles are a straight swap.

    Their is absolutly no way wagon doors are the same as sedan on a VN, im 110% surem seriously check out the window frames, ones edan is curved and a wagon is like extended with a sharp edge, anything below tyhe window frames are the same.
    I havent tryed fititng VS doors, we just parked next to one and comparer and again the window frames looked a bit different.

    Actually I apologise, you're right. Wagon doors are different to sedan doors (main window and main door are the same, but that small window has a straight back to it on the wagons, not slanted like sedan).

    VN-VS Sedan = the same.
    VN-VS Wagon = the same.
    Sedan-Wagon = different.

    Ill agree with that, As i said ive never tryed to fit VS doors but did compare them, and they looked different. Im 100% sure wagon are different, as we bought some and went to fit them, and uh oh that door isnt going to close lol.

    Are VS-VN door trims interchangeable?

    The door trims are interchangable yes but the VS front door trims have the air con vents for the dash, so you'd need to swap the dash as well.

    The seats are straight swap and door trims, dash will just need some loom work as you have different buttons etc. on the VS dash (i.e. hazard light and a/c buttons in centre of dash, windscreen wipers on a stalk on left hand side of steering wheel instead of having the VN/VP satellite buttons).
