    Default VR/VS doors.

    Are they interchangeable.

    Mate of mine has a VS door he tried to fit to a VR, and it seemed to be a fair bit longer and taller.
    Is something wrong here, or do they not fit?

    VR & VS share all the same doors. However, the rear doors are different from wagon to sedan. If its a front door issue he has a big problem.

    Yeah its the front drivers door.
    I'll go have a look, he reckons the window is a good inch higher and the door about an inch or two longer, bent hinges?

    Edit:
    I got it on, he just didnt know how to "adjust" the hinges.

    The shape of the window frame for starters!

    Whilst on the subject of door swaps, are VN doors and panels compatible with models up to VS?

    VN sedan fronts fit the front of the VR, we tried.
    VN wagon doors will fit the VR wagon i think, just going by eye they look the same.

    vn-s sedan doors are the same
    vn-s wagon and stato rear doors have different upper frames (longer up top) and the 1/4 glass in them is different.

    Thanks for that, where do the VN wagon doors stop fitting - VP?

    So what about the VN bonnet, guards and wagon tailgate, lights and bumper assembly?

    vn wagon, vq stato, vp wag, vr/s wag and stato are all the same.
    t/gate and rear bar assy should all be the same
    front ends on vn/p are different but i think that the bar reos are the same

    Thanks champ. I caused myself some confusion as I omitted the VN wagon rear doors in that second question!

    So I assume VN and VP wagon rear doors will not fit into VR-S wagon rear door holes?

    Thanks, I'm straight with it now and understand. The sedan, stato and wagons all have different rear doors! Cool!
