Doors

[londondan86]

Will a phase 3 set of doors and boot lid fit my phase 1(5 door)? I am guessing yes but wasn't sure if the hinges or locks are in a different position.
Reason is mine are all very tatty, grey door handles, mismatch door cards, etc.
Cheers

Can't read... ignor!

Iirc isn't the rear lock different from 1 to 2-3

[declantg]

they have a lock surround wit hbadge, as to whether its different inside i dunno

they do however differ loom wise and rear wiper so will be a right pig and you will need to rewire it

just get a ph3

This is precisely the French gayness I mean. AFAIK the lock surround is.different but the lock itself is the same. Just need to be sureish before I go at it.

@kingy I can't get rid of trixy! I've thought about it lots of times but I love the old girl. Plus I enjoy having one of the oldest cars on the road by me! She just really needs some exterior tlc.

didnt you read my post? the wipers are in different locations and the loom need cutting and rewiring

Yea mate, I did. I'm not too fused about the wiring, there's not that much in there, lock (mine doesn't work anyway), demister and wiper. Shouldn't be that hard to wire.

Main thing I wanted to know was the physical locations of the locks and hinges and will it all line up?

The loom comes out of the boot lid, theirs no need to cut it

[devils_fuel]

I changed my boot lid, what a bastard to pull the loom from your car through the new boot-lid but the washer pipe didn't happen-routed it internally!

Basically I don't envy you with what you're planned, try and get doors with the same looms to reduce your work

It'll all bolt on fine.
Ph2/3 boot looms will need to be changed for ph1 one
Doors can be left as is, but will require a non auto window switch to function properly (will blow fuses otherwise)

Sorry, but I think the main problem is 3 door and 5 door doors are different sizes. So they won't physically fit the gaps... Or will be too big, dependent on which way you look at it I guess!

Pahaha yup... I thought the OP said 3door on to 5door, rather than P3 in to P1 5 door. D'oh!
