    Hi guys, so I've only been able to find interchangeable parts inside or on the doors. I want to know if I can swap over an entire door. Here's why. I have an 86 st161 with manual windows. I want to swap the electric window doors from an 88 st162 out of the junk yard. And they are both coupes. Look the same. But are they? Thanks guys.

    yes they are the same, why bother with that when you can just switch the guts over. see the other thread

    I seen that, but the doors at the junk yard are 60 a piece. Full door. And just seems way easier to just do a couple bolts that gut out a whole door and re stuff it, unless needed.

    We'll, I can't just throw the door on. Just looked, the plug from my car is the same, but no where near as many wires in the back of it, on the car itself side. I have to wire it in....

    Well doors themselves we're definitely interchangeable. along with door panels. Kept my old door panels because they look better. Just slight customization to put the handle with the controls on.
